HTTP: Binary Data in Accept
This signature detects binary client-to-server data on an HTTP connection. HTTP connections should not permit binary data (except for file uploads that can be blocked).
Extended Description
The presence of binary data in an HTTP request may indicate an attempt to exploit a vulnerability in an HTTP server and launch an attack.
