Thanks for the heads-up, updating now.
Lots and lots of things use the shell... It's not inconceivable someone could exploit a CGI script for example. It wouldn't be easy, but if they manage it once on a common software like webmin, they have a way into lots of machines.

NAME
hobbitcgi.cfg - Command-line parameters for the Xymon CGI tools
SYNOPSIS
$BBHOME/etc/hobbitcgi.cfg
DESCRIPTION
hobbitcgi.cfg(1) controls the commandline options passed to all of the Xymon CGI tools through their respective shell-script wrappers. Typ-
