HTTP: Microsoft Outlook PRF File Remote Code Execution
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook. An attacker can create a Web site containing a dangerous call to a PRF file, which if accessed by a victim, allows the attacker to gain control of the victim's client browser.
Extended Description
Microsoft Outlook is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because the application fails to adequately validate user-supplied data. Successfully exploiting this issue will allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the currently logged-in user. This will facilitate the remote compromise of affected computers.
