Hi, We've found a serious security issue affecting CSS servers. There is a plugin for CSS that allows to expose SHELL system command. Of of the examples is !!! compiling helloworld.cpp program and executing it. Another example might be listing directories, wget-ing trojans and exposing the whole machine to the world.
This is totally unacceptable. VALVE please FIX this ASAP as this serious security issue may bring down all machines running CSS servers.
