What tests must be in place in order to keep your perl scripts from being hijacked from spammers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
For forms that send email, you don't want to let the user enter a "To, CC, or BCC" address. This should be hard coded into your script. If you must let the user send email to an address they input you should make them enter a unique user name and password to login to use the script. I'm sure there are other things to be considered depending on how the script will be used, but these are basic measures you should take.
