I gotta say, this is a pretty sorry state of affairs. This is unfortuantely quite typical (ignoring valid security exploits instead of doing something about it) of software companies it seems. I don't mean to rake you over the coals if its you in charge of fixing this alfred, or if you even have a say on what you can and can not work on, but its pretty bad form.. Not like we haven't seen this before.. how long did HLTV go unpatched with a similar problem?
I certainly hope no one here gets rooted as a result of this :( James ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Pettit" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 5:02 AM Subject: RE: [hlds_linux] HLDS Expolits > 3 Servers have been killed of mine now and as I type this another 2 have > just been killed. > > Hurry :/ > > > Cheers, > > Scott Pettit > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of barjo > Sent: Wednesday, 30 July 2003 11:52 p.m. > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [hlds_linux] HLDS Expolits > > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > Is there anyway to track down who is using this and ban them at the IP > level > server wide?
