Malicious Web Server Module Uploaded
This rule detects attempts to upload malicious web server modules, plugins, or components. It specifically looks for HTTP PUT requests to URIs containing '/modules/', '/plugins/', or '/components/' and checks the file data for the 'MZ' header, indicating an executable file (likely a Windows executable or DLL). This combination suggests an attacker is trying to upload a malicious executable to a web server's module/plugin directory for persistence or further compromise.
