This signature detects an MS-SQL "sysobjects" command in a URL known to be in use by BotNets to scan Web sites for injection. Because SQL commands are not normally used in HTTP connections, this can indicate a SQL injection attack. This can also be a false positive. To reduce False Positives, it is strongly recommended that these signatures only be used to inspect traffic from the Internet to your organization's Web servers that use SQL backend databases to generate content and not to inspect traffic going from your organization to the Internet.
