The SV_CheckForDuplicateNames function in Valve Software Half-Life CSTRIKE Dedicated Server 1.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and daemon hang) via a backslash character at the end of a connection string to UDP port 27015.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
