Random Segmentation Fault Crashes.. Exploit?
 

Hey guys.. My servers been crashing under segmentation fault error randomly for weeks now.. Whenever the server crashes, it'll create a dmp file in my /tmp/dump/ folder. But the thing is that I couldn't find a way to open that *.dmp file.

My server is on the latest build, and I'm also using the autobuyfix plugin, but the server is still crashing, randomly.. Are there any new exploits out there that can even crash the latest build?

I'll summit a screen shot when I get home later if it crashed again. But there are no details being given at all, except the CrashID, where the dump file is being generated.. Are there anyway to get my server to show more details about the crash? Maybe a debug command through startup line?

Things I'd tried so far
- autobuyfix plugin
- Latest 3.2.7 kernel stable
- Swapped different sticks of rams
- metamod -p
- disabled csstats

I'd also heard that those crashers can crash the server if there are weapons restricted too.. is this true?

Anyways, please shed some light on me guys.. I tried almost everything I can but still no luck..

Thanks in advance.

Yes, there is a new exploit.

I can give you protection for linux. Protection is a simple command for iptables

Thanks.. but how do I apply this fix to the server? Is this something for my router? Or it's for the startup command line? Sorry for being complete new :cry:

Are you using dproto ? If so, it's most likely the origin of the flaw.

Re: Random Segmentation Fault Crashes.. Exploit?
 

Open the Linux console, you enter with root privileges and type commands into the terminal

A new exploit has nothing to do with dproto. The error comes from the engine (engine_i686.so and swds.dll)

Re: Random Segmentation Fault Crashes.. Exploit?
 

Dproto patches many things in memory for engine. It would not be suprising that a new exploit finds a flaw from there.

What new exploit? Are you talking about the one released last month, Jo's?
If you are, that exploit is just for windows servers that are using dproto. Steam servers can't be crashed.

Re: Random Segmentation Fault Crashes.. Exploit?
 

Thanks.. I'll give that a try when I get home later.. Will report back later for results.

Re: Random Segmentation Fault Crashes.. Exploit?
 

New exploit is 10th February and says Jo's v2 and works on steam servers

Does it affect linux servers too?
