Signature Detail

HTTP: SQL Injection in HTTP Cookie

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against multiple Web applications. It could, however, be a false positive. To reduce false positives, it is strongly recommended that these signatures only be used to inspect traffic from the Internet to your organization's Web servers that use SQL backend databases to generate content and not to inspect traffic going from your organization to the Internet. Attackers can inject SQL command using cookie header fields.
