Cgi Trap

CGI script abuse allows crackers to potentially exploit security holes and gain unauthorized access to systems. The document outlines how to detect when crackers are probing a web server's CGI directory to find vulnerabilities, as improperly configured CGI scripts and web applications are often overlooked risks despite other protections like firewalls. System administrators can help enhance security by monitoring for signs that crackers are scanning the CGI script directory to attempt exploiting any holes.
