-------------------------------------------
and then when making a request to the site url,
wget mosascollection.uk///wp-includes/ID3/license.txt
httpd event would sit and consume ram till server swapped out, and then oom'd
Please not the file wp-includes/ID3/license.txt did NOT exist, and the /// may
be part of the cause.
This is obviously a DOS vector, and if any more information is required please
ask.
best regards
