The Citadel/UX Remote Denial of Service exploit (PoC) is a Proof of Concept for exploiting a remote denial of service vulnerability in the Citadel/UX software. This exploit has been tested on Slackware 9.0.0, 9.1.0, and 10.0.0. The exploit code is designed to trigger a denial of service by sending a specific request to the target server
