Possibly.... There is an existing bug report on Casper
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1463003&group_id=16176&atid=116176

However, it sounds sufficiently different to warrant a new bug report.
See my response on submitting a bug report elsewhere in this thread.

I think Ewen would like to hear about this. Can you please contact him
directly?

Marinetti does not respond to pings.
Marinetti *may* have buffer overflow issues and be susceptible to DOS
attacks.
However, because Marinetti was developed from scratch, these issues
are unlikely to be the exactly the same issues as documented
vulnerabilities for other platforms, and therefore exploits designed
for other platforms will not succeed with Marinetti.
