Potentially Serious server probs?

[*HatCHeT*]

Just seen this on CS Nation

MourningAfter has shut down all their servers due to a bug, they have issued a rather serious warning:

All of the MourningAfter Halflife Servers have been intentionally shut off due to an exploit that could potentially threaten the security of the cluster being reported on BugTraq. Operations will resume after Valve addresses this problem...hopefully swiftly.

I suggest all leagues suspend match play until this issue has been resolved. My apologies for any inconvenience this may cause you or your clan.

That's kinda shocking news, wonder what the bug is.


Demon have also closed their DM servers due to a bug / security problem and wont be opening until Valve sort it out....

any ideas as to what this may be? more importantly, what are the chances of the WP servers copping it as well? :cry:

Someone needs to look at this cos its not only HL is TFC and CS and AHL and FA and OP4, you get my drift..

Just looked at the cs nation site and it says it a linux hlserver problem. I thought WP used win boxes for all thier servers, so they should be ok :E. Lets hope so.
I may of course be wrong.

I've checked with our server guys and we aren't running any linux Half-Life servers - so we're OK at least :)
