Description

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the Back Orifice pre-processor module
included with Snort versions 2.4.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.2, and 2.4.3. This vulnerability could
be used to completely compromise a Snort sensor, and would typically gain an attacker
full root or administrative privileges.
