Detecting Debug Endpoints

Probe a target for accidentally-public admin / debug / introspection endpoints — Spring Boot Actuator, Apache server-status, Prometheus metrics, GraphQL playground, Swagger UI, phpMyAdmin, JMX-over-HTTP (Jolokia), Elasticsearch _cat, Kibana / Grafana / Eureka / Consul panels. Use when: post-deploy verification, security audit before SOC2, inheriting a system you didn't build, or a bug bounty hints at an exposed introspection panel. Threshold: any of the canonical 40+ admin/debug paths returns 200, 302 to a login, or framework-specific JSON shape (e.g., Actuator returning a _links object, server-status HTML body containing the Apache Server Status title). Trigger with: "check debug endpoints", "actuator exposure", "admin panel scan", "graphql playground check".
