It didn't detect the vulnerability, it likely just detected that you
used the Firebird protocol and matched that with one of the known and
fixed vulnerabilities. You really need to be more specific, did it say
which vulnerability it detected (which CVE)?

The term "buffer overflow" is very generic, and Firebird has had a few
in previous versions. As far as I am aware, there are no known
vulnerabilities in 2.5.5.
You might want to contact the vendor of Firewall Palo Alto to specify
which vulnerability they detected.
