This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft .NET Framework CLI Loader. Attackers can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the victim.
Microsoft .NET Framework is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of a user running the application. Successful exploits can result in the complete compromise of affected computers. Failed attacks will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
