NFS: nfs-utils TCP Connection Termination Denial of Service
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against statd daemon of the nfs-utils package. A successful attack can result in a denial-of-service condition.
Extended Description
statd in nfs-utils 1.257 and earlier does not ignore the SIGPIPE signal, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server process crash) via a TCP connection that is prematurely terminated.
