"The version of Multi-Router Looking Glass (MRLG) installed on the remote host is prior to 5.5.0. It is, 
therefore, affected by a memory-handling vulnerability in fastping.c that can be triggered remotely 
without authentication. Therefore, an attacker could send crafted input through the MRLG interface 
or over the network to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of 
the web-server process, exposing the system to full compromise. Administrators are advised to 
upgrade to MRLG 5.5.0 immediately.
 
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
