HTTP: Cisco User-Changeable Password CSuserCGI.exe Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Cisco User-Changeable Password. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the server.
Extended Description
Cisco User-Changeable Password (UCP) is prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities, including cross-site scripting and buffer-overflow vulnerabilities. Exploiting the cross-site scripting issues may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

The buffer-overflow issues are tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCsl49180. The cross-site scripting issues are tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCsl49205. These issues affect versions prior to UCP 4.2 when running on Microsoft Windows.
