This signature detects possible attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the D-Link router UPNP. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the system.
D-Link wired and wireless routers are prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because these devices fail to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. Successful exploits can allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of the affected device.
