#(system 'rm -rf /')
or something like that.

Search the mailist archives on this list and the -devel list for a
discussion.  In summary:
1) somebody could wipe out anything that the web interface
software can touch.
3) somebody could read anything that the web interface software
can read.
2) somebody could use up as many resources as you're willing to
give the web interface.

We know how to solve these issues, but nobody has offered to work
on them, so they remain unsolved.
