This signature detects directory traversal attempts to upload a file to a malicious server. The server can embed a directory traversal attack in the filename to specify the exact file download location on the client machine.
An attacker could take control of a SunFTP server by putting malicious programs, such as Trojan horses, on the system using a "dot dot" vulnerability.
