Summary: Any server responding to Gamespy-style UDP status requests are
vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks with spoofed IP addresses. The
article explains in detail, but they found that just one person with a
14.4 modem connection could generate enough traffic to completely flood a
full T1 circuit. A person with a 56k modem connection could generate
enough traffic to completely flood two full T1 circuits.
Probably the wrong list for this but the server admin list has a lot of
people on it and I'd like to know if Valve even _knows_ about this before
all the script kiddies get ahold of it.
