[cobalt-users] Malicious user can get the raq down

Hi all,
A few days ago, one of our Raq's went down. Problem: one of our users with
only CGI support has ran a Perl script with an infinite loop in it:
$count = 1;
while ($count < $TMP) {
push(@TMPRec,$count*2);
}
Does anyone have an idea how to stop this, so that a simple user isn't able
to get a raq down? Of course, without disabling CGI support?
Greats,
Martin Waltmans
