<bug_description>Virgil CGI Scanner is an open-source CGI scanner with web frontend. The software fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. By passing a malicious value to a CGI variable, it may be possible for a remote attacker to execute arbitrary system commands, with the privileges of the webserver process.</bug_description>
<bug_solution>Upgrade to Virgil CGI Scanner 1.0 or use htaccess authentication for the scanning service.</bug_solution>
