This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against D-Forum. D-Forum versions 1.0 through 1.11 are vulnerable. Attackers cab exploit header.php3 and footer.php3 to include PHP code from a remote host and execute arbitrary commands.
D-Forum is prone to an issue which may allow remote attackers to include files located on remote servers. This issue is present in the /includes/header.php3 and /includes/footer.php3 scripts. Under some circumstances, it is possible for remote attackers to influence the include path for the header and footer files to point to an external file on a remote server by manipulating some URI parameters.
