       Chris, Mark, could you please provide more details about the
issue? Is it
       related to CVE-2010-3172?

Yes, it is. However, later testing found that the issue wasn't
completely fixed in 3.50. A new patch has been developed, and is
currently pending review and acceptance by the primary CGI.pm author,
Lincoln Stein. (Now CC'ed).

       Steve, could you please allocate CVE id for this? (id #2)

Mozilla already allocated CVE-2010-2761 to this part for the perl-CGI
issue.
