This signature detects attempts to run SQL queries with high privileges. The PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION keyword can be used to run queries as independent. It could also be a false positive. To reduce False Positives, it is strongly recommended that these signatures only be used to inspect traffic from the Internet to your organization's web servers that use SQL backend databases to generate content and not to inspect traffic going from your organization to the Internet.
Attackers may use the AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION pragma to execute SQL queries at high a privilege level or run queries independently.
