Morgan Todd discovered that AWStats did not correctly strip quotes from
certain parameters, allowing for an XSS attack when running as a CGI.
If a user was tricked by a remote attacker into following a specially
crafted URL, the user's authentication information could be exposed for
the domain where AWStats was hosted.
