This signature detects a Microsoft Internet Explorer client attempting to download a file from a malicious server. The server can embed a directory traversal attack in the filename to specify the exact file download location on the client machine.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability could allow an attacker to inject malicious files on a victim machine, in an arbitrary directory.
