Maybe somehow some variables (origin, angles, etc.) are getting set to
invalid/NaN values which is messing with these functions?

Subject: [hlds] ClipRayToVPhysics crash and other related crash

Lately, I've been getting crashes in the ClipRayToVPhysics function and
other physics related functions. It's been occurring on more than one server
and seems to happen more often recently. The increasing frequency leads me
to believe that it could be some kind of exploit. I do not run SourceMod.
Here are some sample stack traces.

This is correct, but if you find a program or attack that gets past the

That's not really true. If you report the steam group to steam they will
take it down. 
We've done it before. There was a group dedicated to trying to crash our
servers. We reported the group to steam and they took it down.
They also tool the person's ability away from creating groups. 
So just report it to steam.

If you're having problems with DDOS attacks then report them to their ISP

If you manage to get a hold of their IP that is.

because they can't be bothered to police Steam Groups. I would personally 
rather have them focus on other things, such as releasing Episode 3 and updates 
to games.

Thank you,
