FastCGI samples Cross Site Scripting. Two sample CGI's supplied with FastCGI are vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks. FastCGI is an 'open extension to CGI that provides high performance without the limitations of server specific APIs', and is included in the default installation of the 'Unbreakable' Oracle9i Application Server. Various other web servers support the FastCGI extensions (Zeus, Pi3Web etc)
