Descriptions

TippingPoint IPS before 20070710 does not properly handle a hex-encoded alternate Unicode '/' (slash) character, which might allow remote attackers to send certain network traffic and avoid detection, as demonstrated by a cmd.exe attack.

TippingPoint IPS versiones anteriores a 20070710 no maneja apropiadamente el alternativo codificado en hexadecimal de un caracter '/' (barra), lo cual podría permitir a atacantes remotos enviar determinado tráfico de red y evitar la detección, como se demuestra con un ataque de cmd.exe.
