- From leafnode advisory:
"This vulnerability can make leafnode's nntpd server, named leafnode, go
into an unterminated loop when a particular article is requested. The
connection becomes irresponsive, and the server hogs the CPU. The client
will have to terminate the connection and connect again, and may fall
prey to the same problem; ultimately, there may be so many leafnode
processes hogging the CPU that no serious work is possible any more and
the super user has to kill all running leafnode processes."
