  it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input data.

  Remote attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary shell
  commands with the privileges of the user running the application.

  Note that for an exploit to succeed, access to the WAP interface's
  ping feature must be allowed.

  Versions prior to Nagios 3.1.1 are vulnerable.");
