The PCRE in 13514 looks like this:

pcre:"/update[^\n]*set/i";

and so picks up all kinds of stuff.  I suspect you meant to catch the syntax:

 update[space][tablename][space]set

Right?

Might I suggest a PCRE that looks like this:

pcre:"/update\h\w\hset/i"

This is probably not what you intended. Maybe:

  pcre:"/update\h+\w+\h+set/i"
