Hi, after I saw some posts on this list asking for a way of logging the ip's trying to exploit the buffer-overflow in hlds <= 3.1.1.1c, i added this as a feature to my patch.
You can grab it at http://mmd.ath.cx/boffix_v3.tar.gz, and like always if there's someone with webspace and enough time to put the file up, I'd appreciate if you host the file (Miklos? ;)) There's no change besides the added logging, so if you don't want to see who's trying to crash your server you can stay with the v2 version. Please keep in mind that a packet that triggers my patch is not necessarily an attempt to crash your server - of course it's very likely, because a "normal" half-life client won't produce such a connect msg. This patch is for an _old_ version of hlds, that isn't supported by valve anymore. You use it at your own risk, and without any warranty. Of course there shouldn't be any real problems with the patch, and in all my tests it worked just as expected, but the software is provided as is, and you'll have to live with that.
