John Fraizer author of MRLG one of the looking glass implementations
has updated his code to fix a flaw that provided too much information.
=20
MRLG-4.3.0 is available at:
Available here:
ftp://ftp.enterzone.net/looking-glass/CURRENT/

Some route servers also provide too much info.
This audit was performed yesterday so if you have already fixed this =
issue please ignore:-)
Part of this issue is the fact that some router servers provide too much =
information.
Without knowing the source/destination ports and IP's this is still a =
difficult vulnerability to exploit.=20

From this URL I did a quick audit.
http://www.traceroute.org/#Route%20Servers
I did NOT look at the looking glass URLs just the route servers.

This is the list of open route servers I did a quick audit on.
No connection means I was unable to connect to it.
Not misconfigured meant sho ip bgp nei did NOT work.
Sho ip bgp nei gives full ports/ips means what you think it means.
You have may want to see if any of them are yours of=20
if you peer / are the upstream for any of them.
