Please don't needlessly boost priorities. This is hardly of highest priority (it doesn't crash the interpreter, for example).
The issue of invoking cgitb functionality automatically was discussed at length when the module was first added to the system. It was decided that the possibility for breakage was too great. After all, other people have almost certainly had to address this problem in their own cgi scripts. Invoking cgitb may thwart those mechanisms, or worse, present clues about
the internal workings of the system which would give bad guys help
breaking into systems.
In short, feel free to import cgitb into your own cgi scripts, but don't
force others to use it if they choose not to. |
