Description:

This detects the http-rpc-epmap service by connecting
to the port 593 and processing the buffer received.

This endpoint mapper provides CIS (COM+ Internet Services)
parameters like port 135 (epmap) for RPC.

Solution:
Deny incoming traffic from the Internet to TCP port 593
as it may become a security threat in the future, if a
vulnerability is discovered.
