Hi,
This looks to me like a formmail.cgi vulnerability. Make sure any sites
on your server are using the most up to date version of the formmail.cgi
script
Check out: http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripts/formmail.shtml for the
update information. The new version is 1.9 and released august 3rd. I'd
advise all your raq users to update their formmail scripts if they
haven't already.
Regards,
Andy
