Summary

This URL allows the intruder to see unauthorized information about the server.

Details

Some versions of IRIX with SoftWindows installed ship by default with a CGI program called reg_echo.cgi, which returns information about the server's hardware. This information could be useful to an attacker in performing an attack. The information returned is roughly identical to that given by the MachineInfo script, also installed by default.
