Hello Charlie,

Do you have a pcap of the traffic that produced some of these false positives?


Thanks.

memory access attempt

Hi list

The number of false positives these two rules produce is huge!
Has anyone else seen the same or amended the rule to be a bit more specific to the exploit,i.e. user agent is Acrobat 
Reader or something so it's a bit more specific.

Any thoughts gratefully received

Charlie
