Jeff: If these are players on our ban list, this would indeed work. However
from reviewing my server logs they don't even connect long enough for the
server to resolve their steamid. They wouldn't even need to own the game and
could use some pirated copy, a VAC banned account, anything really.

ICS: This exploit isn't listed on there as it's not "blocked" by Rcon Lock.
Also this isn't an rcon crash or anything of the kind...

It's absolutely absurd that this hasn't been fixed yet.
