Teamspeak 3 (Exploit fix)

In the new update of Teamspeak 3 there is an exploit when you send a message or poke someone you are able to crash their client via spamming or sending things. I've seen Management take care of it which is a help and hats off to them. So far some friends I have that are into exploits told me about it and said the best way to fix it was to downgrade my client to a previous version which so far has helped alot. I think for now I'm just not going to update as I feel like the version I'm on has no problems and looks the exact same as the updated versions. Now I'm not saying that everyone needs to downgrade but I would recommended it because the chance of someone finding something else to take to advantage of is quite high in upcoming updates. I think it was around 2014 the exact same thing happened with someone finding how to crash clients from private message which is fixed. So all im going to say is find a version where no one has found anything and just use that. Now downgrading is a little scary because you don't know if the one you get is filled with a virus, if you want the place I got it from then just ask and I will give it to you.

I believe a fix is coming very soon so we may as well wait for that. Good idea though!

 
The exploit only works on clients of the most recent version. Downgrading does indeed remove the issue but getting everyone to downgrade for the sake of a few days seems a bit drastic. Good spot though!

That what I was talking about last night with someone. It is alot of work just for a few days but it was a pain when it was found and people was doing it.

 
Alright fair enough. I do believe it is the hotfix that TS devs claim fixes the problem so I assume you will make a post for people to update and enable messages again? :)
Testing in progress at the moment I believe (don't quote me on that). 

 
Issue resolved (on 3.19.1), if you're looking at this post make sure that you update your ts3 client otherwise you are still vulnerable to the issue. 

Messages are now re-enabled!
