A software developer has published details on his blog of a way to bring down servers running the popular online game Minecraft. The developer says that he informed Minecrafts developers Mojang (since bought by Microsoft for $2.5 billion) in July 2013. The last time Askar contacted Mojang was in October 2013. Askar says that since first publishing his blog post, Mojang has been in touch and are working on a proper fix. But I’m not a fan of fully disclosing details of the flaw and providing code which others can use to exploit it.”]
