Subject: cgi: escape url in 403 error output
X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cdfc902a4cb77bc538a729f9e1c8a8578454a0e5;p=oweals%2Fuhttpd.git

cgi: escape url in 403 error output

Escape the untrusted request URL input in the permission denied HTML output.

This fixes certain XSS vulnerabilities which can be leveraged to further
exploit the system.
