Another uricontent question


From: "Lawrence Reed" <Lawrence.Reed () noaa gov>

Do uricontent's get checked in sequentially like content options? In particular sid 1072 has two uricontent options. According to most of the advisories these two uricontents need to appear in the order they are defined ie "GET /.nsf/../somefile". However I am receiving alerts for URI like "GET /../prog.nsf/data/file". Is this expected behaviour?

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HTTP_SERVERS $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"WEB-MISC Lotus Domino directory traversal"; uricontent:".nsf/"; uricontent:"../"; nocase; flow:to_server,established; reference:cve,CVE-2001-0009; reference:bugtraq,2173; classtype:web-application-attack; sid:1072; rev:6;)

URI in question:  "GET /../MEMWebsite.nsf/Files/tep/file/tep.pdf "
