The vulnerability is caused due to the use of uninitialized values when handling "STEAMBLOB" commands, which can be exploited to cause an invalid memory access and crash the server by sending a specially crafted UDP packet. The vulnerability is reported in version 2.1 (aka 3809). Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Use in trusted network environments only.
