If you connect to a computer running the SimpleSever:WWW 1.16 (latest
version) you can remotely close the server causing a DoS.
To crash the server:
Connect to the machine (telnet server 80) and type 640 @ signs then press
enter twice.
I haven’t tested to see exactly how many @ signs you need but 640 seems to
do the trick!
I have also reported this to AlalogX, and I am still awaiting their reply.
Fort.
