APP: Rdesktop iso_recv_msg Integer Underflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Rdesktop program. A successful attack could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system. Failed exploit attempts could result in a denial of service condition.
Extended Description
The 'rdesktop' program is prone to multiple remote memory-corruption vulnerabilities because it fails to properly validate incoming packets. A remote attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. These issues affect rdesktop 1.5.0; other versions may also be vulnerable.
