What is CVE-2008-1338?

The Perforce Server is susceptible to a Denial of Service attack due to a flaw in the p4s.exe service. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability by issuing a server-DiffFile command with a specific integer value, triggering a loop that exhausts system memory, ultimately causing the server to crash. This allows remote attackers to disrupt service availability, posing significant risks to operational continuity.
