SMTP: Exchange Multiple Mail Route Commands

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft Exchange Server. A successful attack could allow an unauthenticated attacker to connect to the SMTP port on an Exchange server and issue a specially-crafted extended verb. This might allow the attacker to run malicious programs of their choice in the security context of the SMTP service.
