status: experimental
level: high
description: |
  This rule detects attempts to exploit CVE-2026-8233 by targeting the Dotouch XproUPF component. It specifically looks for POST requests to the '/XproUPF/api/v1/config' endpoint with a query parameter indicating an attempt to manipulate access control settings, resulting in a Forbidden (403) status code. This suggests an attacker is trying to bypass access controls, which is the core of this vulnerability.
