- Comments
- Christey> What is the right level of abstraction to use here? Should | we combine all possible interpreters into a single entry, | or have a different entry for each one? I"ve often seen | Perl separated from other interpreters - is it included | by default in some Windows web server configurations? | Christey> Add tcsh, zsh, bash, rksh, ksh, ash, to support search. | Frech> XF:http-cgi-vuln(146)
