El bug de la página web lo encuentro poco importante. El bug fuerte, es
el que hay arriba del link que nos da Rubén. Existe un EXPLOIT, que hace
de server, i puede ejecutar "CUALQUIER COMANDO" en la maquina de la
persona que entre en ese server pensandose que es un server valido...

Si alguien quiere mas info en cristiano:
