Subject: Security flaw.
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 20:02:14 -1000
To: bug-POE-Component-IRC-Plugin-WWW-GetPageTitle [...] rt.cpan.org
From: gerard null <gerard.mail2345 [...] gmail.com>
Tell it to get the title of a page with: <html><head><title>lol&#13;&#10;<command>&#13;&#10;</title></head></html> Subsitute command for some sort of irc command. Fairly serious. Platform is perl v5.10.0 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi on Ubuntu Hardy Herdon with 2.6.27-11-generic linux kernel.
Subject: RE: Security flaw.
Yup, major bug. I thought PoCo::IRC would take care of all that, but it obviously did not. I've fixed the plugin and updated version [0.0102] was just shipped to CPAN. Cheers!
