SERVER-OTHER -- Snort has detected traffic exploiting vulnerabilities in a server in the network.
SERVER-OTHER Unitrends UEB 9 bpserverd unauthenticated remote command execution attempt
This rule alerts when an attempt to exploit a proprietary command in the Unitrends UEB 9 bpserverd daemon exposed via xinetd is detected. The command provided by the bpserverd daemon allows attackers to execute any command available to the linux subsystem without requiring execution. This can lead to complete system compromise, as the utility runs as the root user.
This rule alerts when an attacker attempts to exploit CVE-2017-12477.
