feature can be exploited to cause memory leaks and reload the device
via specially crafted messages that transit the device.

2) An error in the Measurement, Aggregation, and Correlation Engine
(MACE) feature can be exploited to cause a reload via specially
crafted messages that transit the device.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 15.1M, 15.2GC, and
