This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Poison Ivy C&C Server. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the server.
Poison Ivy is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. Poison Ivy 2.3.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
