APP: IA WebMail Server Long GET Request Buffer Overrun
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known flaw in IA WebMail. A successful attack could result in arbitrary code execution.
Extended Description
IA WebMail Server is said to be prone to a remote buffer overrun that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. The problem occurs due to insufficient bounds checking when handling GET requests. As a result, an attacker may be capable of overrunning the bounds of an internal memory buffer and effectively control the flow of execution.
