CVE-2014-3931Multi-Router Looking Glass — remote memory write

The ping handler in the network looking-glass tool (MRLG) before 5.5.0 lets a remote attacker write to memory of their choosing and corrupt the running process.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Upgrade the looking-glass tool to 5.5.0 or later now; it is a public-facing diagnostic, so also ask whether it needs to be reachable at all.
