Important security update
 

A new server crash exploit is in the wild, therefor Epic released an supplement patch.
Everybody is strongly adviced to update their servers as soon as possible.

• Windows fix (first apply the 3369 patch)
• Updated linux patch

Is this an official Epic release, and how can we confirm that?
Plus, does the server crash exploit "work" against the Win64 version?

Is there a Mac version too?

The crash exploit works on all versions and yes this is an official Epic release. (it was posted on the UT2k4 mailing lists and all the news sites are showing it)

Do you have a Mac server?

I do indeed, is why i'm asking.

Yes, it's an official Epic release. It has been tested by a select few before it was made public, so it shouldn't have any (new) side effects.
Also, I posted it and therefor it's official (hint: this doesn't apply on the first of the 4th month).
If you don't trust me you are clearly visiting the wrong site :P

But I guess I could have said that "Epic released ..."

Is Epic going to release a Win64 version of this patch?

Yea there's supposed to be one soon.

You did "Epic released an supplement patch."



and thx.

Yes, added that after I said it

I can't relate to one thing: why aren't news like this posted on the unrealtournament.com site, and why that site in general is in shambles...?

Indeed - the Epic and Unreal Tournament sites are basically useless at providing any good information. I needed to contact Epic about something and it took me two days to manage get an e-mail address for contacting.

unrealtournament.com is managed by Atari afaik.

besides... the best info comes from fan sites

Ya I know - I just meant in general.

Oh well anyway - your 2nd point is very very true.

Gagh! Where is that Win64 fix...

Will there EVER be a Win64 update? Is it even needed?

www.icculus.org ??

Does this include 3369 & 3369.1 patches for Linux server? I guess it does as its around same size than those.

I still don't understand what's up with the Win64 3369 CrashFix, and no one has yet provided a substantial answer. Is the fix needed and we must patiently await it, or is the Win64 version not affected by the exploit? It's been a month now, and still nothing conclusive.
