Webbsyte Chat Denial Of Service Vulnerability

Webbsyte Chat is reported susceptible to a denial of service vulnerability.

This issue presents itself when multiple simultaneous TCP connections are made to the chat server. When this occurs, the application will reportedly crash, denying service to legitimate users.

Version 0.9 was reported vulnerable. The application is not supported any longer, so it is unlikely that a fix will become available.
