The exploit is the same as the gateway exploit, but it works on all the nodes. Basically it sends non-stop unknown packet to the nodes (0x7777 normally) and overflow them. Only fix would be put a proxy in front of the server that blocks unknown packet requests.
The Projecthax fix only works for small attacks with that tool, this means, attacks from home computers, since it disable the error show of the packet and the nodes doesn't get that high impact, but still, if an attack come from a host with a great connection, your server will fall.
