it would unexpectedly dump a complete set of web query data and server
environment information as an error page

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1067180

until 2008, if you overloaded setup() - which everyone does - you had
NO start->dump_html default at all in run_mode!

After the change, you ALWAYS have dump_html as a default run_mode
unless you explicitly redefine it in your code.

Behaviour of an otherwise unmodified application changed due to an
update of Application.pm. Data that should not be shown AND was not
shown when using versions before v4.19 was now on screen. Customers
were not amused.

Use CVE-2013-7329.
