TNS: Message Overflow


This anomaly triggers if it detects that the Transparent Network Substrate (TNS) part of a packet, in a message, is longer then expected. A malformed message, with a longer than normal TNS packet part, can indicated an attempt to compromise your system.

Extended Description

Overly long TNS packet parts constitute a protocol anomaly. Such a condition could indicate a TNS configuration or implementation error. It also could indicate that an attack against the TNS service is underway.
