It is an attack. It's A2S_INFO query spam on spoofed IP addresses and it's
happening to tons of servers. I think some community is trying to fill their
servers by emptying out a ton of others.

This is some attack for sure I have not had any issues myself but everything
points to a person doing it server by server. The network traffic meter
shows a slow steady drop in traffic. After looking in the logs I notice
people talking about it a few other times today any remember noticing a
server drop out and come back up quick (I didn't have time to look more into
it) no problems at all before the exploit was pointed out today. Not saying
that's bad I just hope they can be remedy this quick as I'm sure it's not
going to stop with just our servers.

I was on my forums at the time and didn't even notice this was going on no
network issues at all.
