Remote DoS in AnalogX SimpleServer:www 1.16

If you connect to a computer running the SimpleSever:WWW 1.16 (latest 
version) you can remotely close the server causing a DoS.

To crash the server:
Connect to the machine (telnet server 80) and type 640 @ signs then press 
enter twice.

I haven’t tested to see exactly how many @ signs you need but 640 seems to 
do the trick!

I have also reported this to AlalogX, and I am still awaiting their reply.
