Description Vincent Danen 2010-10-04 14:30:27 UTC
A flaw was discovered in how the MRG broker handled the receipt of large persistent messages.  If a remote authenticated user were to send a very large persistent message, the broker could exhaust stack memory, resulting in a segfault of the broker.  Subsequent connections to the broker would fail until it was restarted.
