HTTP: Windows MetaFile Record Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Windows GDI. Attackers can cause a victim to view a malformed WMF file and take control of the victim's computer in the context of the logged in user.
Extended Description
Microsoft Windows is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied metafile data. Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of users viewing malicious files. This facilitates the remote compromise of affected computers.
