He meant DoS, or "Denial of Service". He believes he has found some sort of security bug/exploit. He responded to me privately (his C code has nothing whatsoever to do with the issue), and I do not believe that what he found qualifies as a denial of service exploit. If he wishes to bring the actual issue to the bug-bash mailing list, then we can discuss it publically, but I'll respect his desire to maintain privacy at this time.
