I'm currently running a r1q2 server for some friends on my dedicated linux server that is accessible via the internet. I'd now like to install the OSP Tourney mod because I need more control than vanilla Quake 2 offers. I found >this security warning though >this security warning though (and I remember reading about it at bugtraq when it was first posted).
I'm aware of the suggested work-arounds in this documents but disabling voting would ruin the benefits of OSP of course. So my questions are:
1) Have the issues mentioned in that document been fixed in a later version of OSP? 2) If not, which alternatives to OSP would you recommend? (The Battleground mod was mentioned in that file - are there known security issues for this mod? What about the open source replacement version of OSP that is mentioned in that advisory - does it exist?)
