Summary
Waitress is a Web Server Gateway Interface server for Python 2 and 3. When a remote client closes the connection before waitress has had the opportunity to call getpeername() waitress won't correctly clean up the connection leading to the main thread attempting to write to a socket that no longer exists, but not removing it from the list of sockets to attempt to process. This leads to a busy-loop calling the write function. A remote attacker could run waitress out of available sockets with very little resources required. Waitress 3.0.1 contains fixes that remove the race condition.

Esto conduce a un bucle de actividad que llama a la funci\u00f3n de escritura. Un atacante remoto podr\u00eda dejar a waitress sin sockets disponibles y requerir muy pocos recursos.
