before 1.0.0.42 allow authentication bypass and remote code execution via a buffer overflow that uses 
a parameter in the administration webapp. This vulnerability can only be exploited when an attacker 
can access the internal network or when remote management is enabled on the router. Remote management 
is turned off by default, users can turn on remote management through advanced settings.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's 
self-reported version number.");
