Sauter: Crash via Incomplete SOAP Request

⚡ Just a few incomplete SOAP requests can send the wscserver crashing down like a house of cards—no login required! Think of it as a restaurant where a customer sends back their meal with a vague complaint. The kitchen shuts down entirely, and the staff can’t serve anyone else until the manager comes in and resets the whole system. 🙈 This means an attacker could crash the service, leaving users stranded and needing a full device reboot to get things running again. Imagine the chaos—no access, unhappy users, and a big mess to clean up!
