HTTP: Malformed Content Management Server Request
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft Content Management Server. Versions 2001 SP1 through 2002 SP2 are vulnerable. A successful attack can lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition or arbitrary code execution.
Extended Description
Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) is prone to an arbitrary code-execution vulnerability because the software fails to properly validate user-supplied input.
