.text:1001FDB4 mov eax, [ebp+arg_C]
.text:1001FDB7 sar esi, 3
.text:1001FDBA cdq
.text:1001FDBB idiv esi ; cause div zero exception, and make client crash

let login response packet is an array : a[]

esi is from :
tmp1= a[0x29] + (a[0x2a]<<8) + (a[0x2b]<<0x10) + (a[0x2c]<<0x18) ;
when eip=0x100202ca
tmp2= a[0x2d] + (a[0x2e]<<8) + (a[0x2f]<<0x10) + (a[0x30]<<0x18) ;
when eip=0x100202ca
tmp3= a[0x2b]+(a[0x2c]<<8) + (a[0x2d]<<0x10) + (a[0x2e]<<0x18) ; when
eip=0x1001ef2f
tmp4 = (tmp3<0) ? 0xffffffff:0 ; when eip= 0x1001fdac

tmp5 = tmp4 & 0x7; when eip = 0x1001fdad
tmp6 = tmp3+tmp5; when eip = 0x1001fdb0
esi = tmp6>>3; when eip = 0x1001fdb7

if malicious input is proper, client will crash.
