[ISSForum] Unix/Linux Shell code execution signatures Proventia A 201

Hi:

We had made some testing in our labs, in order to determine if the
signatures already present in siteprotector sensors( wee can only find
8) are able to detect code shell execution in unix/linux web servers
enviroments.

We try a lot of examples of code shell execution attemps , starting
off very specific to very general shell code execution attemps, and we
only can trigger the " HTTP_Unix_Passwords".

The signatures that we enabled in the policies were:

(HTTP_Shells_Bash)
(HTTP_Shells_C)
(HTTP_Shells_Ksh)
(HTTP_Shells_Perl)
(HTTP_Shells_Perl_Exe)
(HTTP_Shells_Rksh)
(HTTP_Shells_Sh)
(HTTP_Shells_Tcsh)
(HTTP_Unix_Passwords)

We are very worried because we was unable to detect a lot of attemps
of attacks of this kind.

Any ideas would help.

Thanks in advance
