RE: Where do these rules come from?

The rules are there because there are kiddie tools which will scan a
webserver for hundreds of commonly found known exploitable 
cgi programs,
and if we didn't rules to detect them, then we'd never know 
we were being scanned.

I understand that.  But what exploitable cgi program is this rule for, for
example.
Shouldn't that info be in the rule?
