I have a WRT54GL running OpenWRT.  I spent a few minutes yesterday looking
around the OpenWRT site and saw no references at all about this exploit
issue.

The exploit report does not explicitly state it but the version number it
refers to is associated with the Linksys factory firmware.  So,
specifically for the reported case, it is not talking about third-party
firmware at all.

That's not to say that similar a vulnerability does not exist in the
third-party stuff, only that I see no report of one for OpenWRT.
