You are passing form parameters directly to sendmail without examining them
at all. Not good.

I could stuff a Cc: line and my own message body into one of the name
paramters for instance, and thus use your script to send any email to
anyone.

Your subject is misleading. There's nothing particularly insecure or
dangerous about CGI.pm. It's your implementation that's problematic.
