This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Cisco IOS FTP Server. A successful attack could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system. Failed exploit attempts could result in a denial of service condition.
Cisco IOS FTP Server is prone to multiple vulnerabilities including a denial-of-service issue and an authentication-bypass issue. Attackers can exploit these issues to deny service to legitimate users, gain unauthorized access to an affected device, or execute arbitrary code. Only IOS devices that have the FTP Server feature enabled are vulnerable; this feature is disabled by default.
