Where exactly is the vulnerability here? I am unable to see it myself, it appears that you are using an eval function to evaluate code which isn't exactly a security issue.The vulnerability appears to lie that this script-fu server just opens a TCP port, un-authenticated and un-encrypted and allows execution to run in the context of the server.
As mentioned, the GIMP Dev team say it is a feature that wasn't designed with security in mind, so if you were to use it, you would be advised to wrap it.
