===============
1) Introduction
===============

From the website:
"GNUnet is a framework for secure peer-to-peer networking that does not
use any centralized or otherwise trusted services. A first service
implemented on top of the networking layer allows anonymous
censorship-resistant file-sharing."

======
2) Bug
======

The asynchronous mode used for the UDP socket is handled through
FIONREAD.
If an empty UDP packet (zero bytes) is received the program enters in
an endless loop where other UDP packets cannot handled and the CPU
reaches the 100% of usage.

More info about this specific bug are available here:
