Dear OpenBSD project

i noticed that since a while people use to send arround prepared links for
the openbsd CVS website with all sort of strange stuff in it. Since I
havent found a bugreport for it (searching for code injection etc), I
wanted to inform you, hoping im not the 12'345th person doing so. I hope
its a bug and not a feature that i dont understand.

if you create a link that looks like:

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/?sortby=%22%3E%3Ch1%20style=%22position:absolute;top:20px;font-size:100pt%22%3E%3Cblink%3Ehello%20world%3C/blink%3E%3C/h1%3E

you can inject code to the openBSD project cvs website. since this is
going on for a while, i think there should be a fix out hopefully soon.


regards, and thanks for the attention, aljoscha
