[hlds_linux] New TF2 DoS exploit: Katana vs. Civilian

2011-03-13 Thread Hendrik Schumann
There seems to be a new exploit around to crash any TF2 server. If a 'civilian' player gets killed with a katana it will crash the server. Tested it on my own TF2 (build 4489, latest) server and was able to reproduce it every time. Haven't tested it without sourcemod but im fairly certain its an

Thanks bl4nk, all sorted now. Hopefully Valve can get a fix shipped ASAP so all the servers are protected, not just the ones with your plugin. 3 Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2011 17:01:19 -0400 From: bl4n...@gmail.com To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] New TF2 DoS exploit:

Not exactly reference pose, but they walk around with no weapons in their hands. It's basically what the civilian class was when it was available in the game via the join_class command. It seems to be the popular thing to call it these days. On Sun, Mar 13, 2011 at 6:04 PM, Tony Paloma

I guess most classes do use the reference pose. Whichever class I initially tested the plugin with didn't use the reference pose afaik. On Sun, Mar 13, 2011 at 8:24 PM, bl4nk bl4n...@gmail.com wrote: Not exactly reference pose, but they walk around with no weapons in their hands. It's
