Lightbox
Lightbox refers to the family of JavaScript plugins that display images and media in a modal overlay. It is detected from the lightbox script and CSS assets and its characteristic markup.
It is a presentational component with minimal security relevance; older unmaintained versions are mainly of note when fingerprinting a site’s full asset stack.

How ScanMalware detects Lightbox
Lightbox is detected by analysing the response headers, HTML markup, JavaScript runtime and asset URLs captured when ScanMalware loads the site in a real headless browser.
From any scan you can pivot into related signals — JARM TLS fingerprints, ASN ownership and BGP routing, certificate history, JavaScript analysis and the overall security verdict — to understand not just that Lightbox is present, but how it is being used.
