Description
Unreferenced Login Page Found refers to the discovery of login pages within a web application that are not directly linked or referenced within the application itself. These pages, although not part of the main navigation or visible to users, may still be accessible to attackers, providing them with insights into potential attack vectors.
Recommendation
To mitigate the risk of information disclosure, promptly remove or restrict access to unreferenced login pages. Relying solely on resource obscurity for security is inadequate; instead, ensure that sensitive resources like login pages are adequately protected through access controls and other security measures.
