This signature detects attempts to access a debug mode Web shell supplied with the Motorola WR850 Wireless Router. Attackers can use this access exploit in conjunction with an authentication bypass exploit to gain full control over the router.
Motorola WR850G wireless router is reported prone to a remote authentication bypass vulnerability. This issue is caused by a design error and may allow an attacker to ultimately take complete control over the device. A remote attacker can gain access to the Web interface of the affected device by periodically attempting to access restricted pages such as the 'ver.asp' script. Motorola wireless router WR850G running firmware version 4.03 is reportedly affected by this issue. It is possible that other models and firmware versions are affected as well.
