Why in gods name are we still using Perl 4 in the base distribution? That perl 5.00x exploit released on bugtraq a while back.. does anyone still have a copy of it somewhere? Has anyone tried exploiting suidperl 4 like that? What exactly is the current status with getting perl 5 into the tree? Just curious.. Adrian.
