[abloke@USA.NET: IRCnet IRCD 2.0x Reboot Bug]

Just found this on bugtraq ... People who haven't patched this should do
so.

Note that this is not a bug in the standard ircd version, but in the
+topic patch. I have no idea what versions of it are vulnerable.


Q
--- Begin Message --- 
It was found some time ago that few of IRCnet's ircd's 
with +topic module can be rebooted by simply 

doing /quote TOPIC !etC (or-whatever !channel)

This has been already mass-abused by 'EvIL MiRkhAx0rZ' 

and servers have been patched now... so time for it to go public since there is virtually no more threat left
