Impact:

Detailed Information:

attacker to execute code of their choosing on a vulnerable host.

In order to avoid potential evasion techniques, http_inspect should be configured with "flow_depth 0" so that all HTTP server response traffic is inspected.

Setting flow_depth 0 will cause performance problems in some situations.

This issue may also affect Microsoft Windows Metafile Format (.wmf)
files also.
