Speaking of unresolved problems... - Unconnected commands - Basically any invalid packet causing the server to break in some way -- A2S_INFO spam (query caching just makes it take slightly more packets to lag everything out) -- A2C_PRINT spam causes lag, even before \b or bell character issues. - 'nuker' spam is still very effective (tons of huge packets with the string 'lol' followed by hundreds of null bytes) - Was that friendly-heavy exploit fixed? - Master server issues (why isn't this handled through steam yet?) - SteamID spoofing (protip: disabling some necessary ticket checks is not a valid fix for invalid-steam-ticket drop issues, valve) - Linux binaries *still* misdetect the CPU and disable what few sse2 functions the engine has. - Linux binaries suck balls and are completely unoptimized, presumably so ancient machines that could never run OB engine servers can still host them. - 64bit binaries? PLZ - Everything here http://wiki.alliedmods.net/SRCDS_Hardening - Clients can *still* load plugins (VAC, lol) - Empty names - File uploads still work, you just have to be slightly more creative and find one of the many unblocked extensions that can be used in a exploitative fashion.
