Bug Description
Binary package hint: socat
Socat is not finishing forked processes properly after redirecting UDP connections. These processes end up as zombie processes on the machine.

The developer sent me a modified xio-udp.c that handles the forked processes better, killing after the timeout. Replacing this file resolves the bug.
