Exclamation 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.

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

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

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

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.

If your unsure of wether you need the patch then look at the readme, if I recall correctly Epic mentioned putting pre-3369 servers off the standard server list.
