Default [Release] unreliable-adv security patch

This is a security patch for UT v451 servers. The vulnerability is described here: http://aluigi.altervista.org/adv/unreliable-adv.txt

The UT v440/451 windows and linux servers are affected by this vulnerability. UT v436 is immune. This patch only works on v451 servers. Do NOT install it on v440/436 servers. Due to the nature of the function that contains the vulnerability, I cannot fix this externally in ServerCrashFix. The only way to fix this properly is to edit the source code (but it doesn't look like that's going to happen). This patch doesn't fix the vulnerability, it simply prevents the server from crashing.

Installation:

* Shut down the server.
* If you run linux, replace Engine.so with the file attached to this post. If you run windows, replace Engine.dll.
* Restart the server.

For Unreal Engine licensees:

In UnChan.cpp, UChannel::ReceivedRawBunch:

Replace:

checkSlow(NumInRec<=RELIABLE_BUFFER);

With:

if (NumInRec>=RELIABLE_BUFFER-1)
{
Connection->State = USOCK_Closed;
}
Attached Files
File Type: zip unreliable-adv-patch.zip (1.25 MB, 243 views)

Server-side only, Chronox.

Download the 436Nodelta patch and you'll be fine.

Why would you run 451 as a client anyway?

You don't need to re-install everything.

Download the 436nodeltapatch on the uk site and just run it. Make sure you keep a copy of your user.ini and unrealtournament.ini so that you don't lose your settings.

If you are adamant on running 451b (no idea why on a client) then just download the 451b patch zip again and copy the engine file out of it.
