If you arrange proper ssh keys for noninteractive logins, your program becomes as simple as:
You use keys like this, with minor differences -- the -i is because your CGI script isn't an interactive login and likely has no home folder to find ~/.ssh/ in. You'll have to pick your own place to put it -- preferably someplace apache itself refuses to touch (which won't stop your perl script or ssh from getting it).
The identity file itself should belong to apache:apache (or whatever user/group your webserver uses) and be set 0400. The folder should also belong to your webhost user/group and be set 0700.
If I have a Perl CGI script (script01), which fills an array(s) with information and outputs a HTML page with a link to another CGI page (script02); is there anyway to pass the array(s) from "script01" to "script02" when the page visitor clicks the link?
Hope that makes sense!

ssh-argv0
SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling
SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]
hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
[-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is
equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally.
OPTIONS
See ssh(1).
FILES
See ssh(1).
