DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported a vulnerability in Battle Carry, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the UDP datagram
handling. This can be exploited to cause a vulnerable server to stop
processing incoming UDP datagrams by sending an overly large UDP
datagram (larger than 8192 bytes) to a vulnerable server.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 0.005 and prior. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Host games on a trusted network only.
