This also includes XMLRPC::Lite, unfortunately. And I believe that the way in which the Frontier::RPC2 module handles marshalling on the server side is roughly the same, making it vulnerable as well.

I believe that the server classes of my RPC::XML package are safe, as I don't open up things by package name-space, routines have to be explicitly "added" to a server object before it will serve requests to them. But I can't be 100% certain, of course, and will be checking and testing over the next few days.

UPDATE: I was wrong about Frontier, it seems. I thought I had seen a syntax in either an example or somewhere else, in which it just gave a namespace to specify a group of available RPC routines. But I can't find that, now. I may well have just hallucinated the whole episode.
