"OmniHTTPd is affected by a vulnerability that permits malicious users
to get the full source code of scripting files. 

By appending an ASCII/Unicode space char '%20' to a script's suffix,
the web server will no longer interpret it and instead send it back as
a simple document in the same manner as it would an HTML document. 

The flaw does not work with files located in CGI directories (e.g
cgibin, cgi-win)." );
