HTTP: DLL File Download via WebDAV

This signature detects Microsoft Windows Dynamically Link Libraries (DLL's) transferred via WebDAV. Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows allow an attacker to reference a malicious remote DLL file through a Web page, which when the page is accessed, overwrites a local DLL, resulting in arbitrary code execution.

Extended Description

Microsoft Windows is prone to an arbitrary-code-execution vulnerability that affects the Media Center. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the vulnerable application.
