CGI form values will not automagically become variables in your receiving shell script. According to CGI specification, you need to parse $QUERY_STRING for GET, or read from standard input for parsing POST data.
Unfortunately, unlike environments such as Perl and PHP, you will need to do all this messy things yourself.
Something like this (untested as I don't use bash for CGI):

appconfig::cgi
AppConfig::CGI(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation AppConfig::CGI(3)
NAME
AppConfig::CGI - Perl5 module for processing CGI script parameters.
SYNOPSIS
use AppConfig::CGI;
my $state = AppConfig::State->new(\%cfg);
my $cgi = AppConfig::CGI->new($state);
$cgi->parse($cgi_query);
$cgi->parse(); # looks for CGI query in environment
OVERVIEW
AppConfig::CGI is a Perl5 module which implements a CGI interface to AppConfig. It examines the QUERY_STRING environment variable, or a
string passed explicitly by parameter, which represents the additional parameters passed to a CGI query. This is then used to update
variable values in an AppConfig::State object accordingly.
AppConfig::CGI is distributed as part of the AppConfig bundle.
DESCRIPTION
USING THE AppConfig::CGI MODULE
To import and use the AppConfig::CGI module the following line should appear in your Perl script:
use AppConfig::CGI;
AppConfig::CGI is used automatically if you use the AppConfig module and create an AppConfig::CGI object through the cgi() method.
AppConfig::CGI is implemented using object-oriented methods. A new AppConfig::CGI object is created and initialised using the new()
method. This returns a reference to a new AppConfig::CGI object. A reference to an AppConfig::State object should be passed in as the
first parameter:
my $state = AppConfig::State->new();
my $cgi = AppConfig::CGI->new($state);
This will create and return a reference to a new AppConfig::CGI object.
PARSING CGI QUERIES
The "parse()" method is used to parse a CGI query which can be specified explicitly, or is automatically extracted from the "QUERY_STRING"
CGI environment variable. This currently limits the module to only supporting the GET method.
See AppConfig for information about using the AppConfig::CGI module via the cgi() method.
