This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the IBM Forms Viewer. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the targeted application.
Stack-based buffer overflow in IBM Forms Viewer 4.x before 4.0.0.3 and 8.x before 8.0.1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an XFDL form with a long fontname value.
