This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft GDI+. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.
Microsoft GDI+ is prone to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability that occurs when an application that uses the library tries to process a specially crafted Enhanced Metafile (EMF) image file. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the currently logged-in user. Failed exploit attempts may crash applications that use the library.
