This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against CISCO Secure ACS Web Console. A successful attack can cause an overflow in the Web console login, thereby creating a possible denial of service (DoS).
It has been reported that some versions of the Cisco Secure ACS software do not properly handle input supplied during authentication. Because of this, it may be possible for a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to a host using the vulnerable software.
