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.
