This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Microsoft Remote Desktop Client. A successful attack can lead to a heap overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the user.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection (formerly Terminal Services Client) running RDP 5.0 through 6.1 on Windows, and Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2.0, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified parameters, aka "Remote Desktop Connection Heap Overflow Vulnerability."
