Server CVARs can be changed by any player

Post by Player701 »

See here. Basically, it appears that any player in a netgame can change any server CVAR (wherher built-in or CVARINFO-defined). This should only be allowed for the hosting player.

Bisecting indicates the offending commit to be this one. It is referenced in this bug report, where the problem was that no one at all could change server CVARs. With another bisect, I've established that the other bug was caused by this commit, though I'm not sure if this information could be useful.
