The Windows dedicated server for the Unreal engine, as used by Americas Army and Americas Army Special Forces 2.8.2 and earlier, when Punkbuster (PB) is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server hang) via packets containing 0x07 characters or other unspecified invalid characters. NOTE: this issue may overlap CVE-2007-4443. NOTE: this issue might be in Punkbuster itself, but there are insufficient details to be certain.
