<blockquote cite="http://secunia.com/advisories/19120/">
<p>Luigi Auriemma has reported a vulnerability in Freeciv, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).</p>
<p>The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the
handling of the packet length in "common/packets.c". This can
be exploited to crash the Freeciv server via a specially-
crafted packet with the size set to "0xffff".</p>
