This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Xerox WorkCentre. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the affected application.
Xerox WorkCentre is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application or crash the affected application. Xerox WorkCentre 4150 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
