SHELLCODE: Metasploit x86/fnstenv_mov Encoder Routine Over TCP-CTS

This signature detects Metasploit shell code being sent as part of an exploit payload, specifically the Windows Execution shell, using the variable-length fnstenv/mov dword XOR encoder (x86/fnstenv_mov). This is a strong indication of malicious activity on your network.

Extended Description

Computer Associates BrightStor ARCserve Backup is affected by a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform proper bounds-checking on data supplied to the application. A remote attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable computer with SYSTEM privileges. Failed exploit attempts may cause denial-of-service conditions. Successful exploits can lead to a complete compromise of affected computers. This issue affects multiple BrightStor ARCserve Backup application agents and the base product.
