  Server Application Directory Traversal 3

Category: SUSPICIOUS-TRAFFIC      

This signature indicates a possible attempt to gather sensitive information about a server, usually in an effort to compromise the system. Directory traversals often are an attempt to browse outside the root of the network service and into privileged locations on the server. This type of vulnerability was more commonly effective against mis-configured products.
