UltraBoard 1.6 Denial of Service

A remote user is able to expend all of the available resources of the webserver by using a specially-devised request to the CGI. This request causes a fork, which will then consume the processor time and memory of the server.

Mitigation:

Upgrade to the latest version of UltraBoard.
