Packet modified spam -> closes connection to all users - 42656e - 12.02.2017

Hi guys,

I've got a problem since some weeks.
Sometimes (there is no time pattern or so) the server closes the connection of all users in about 5 seconds.
It's only this reconnect, nothing else happens - no restart.

The logs show the "Packet was modified" message spam from some players. Then ALL players request new connection cookies without disconnecting first.

I have absolutely no idea, what causes this problem. We have the problem on two different machines with different hardware. The script didn't change. Only the hardware the OS from an older Debian to Ubuntu 16.04

Does someone have an idea, what the problem could be?

Greetings

This^ is the reason.

Spam message of this could mean ddos attack to your server or some player using a hack to crash all players. Ask your vps provider if they have logs for ddos attack(some providers stores logs).
