Everyone please read this article. It raises some important concerns.
Namely:
Do not process a user-submitted variable without filtering it.. EVER.
Make sure user submitted uploads are checked for validity. Otherwise the
file system can pull a sensitive file.
Environment variables can be compromised.

Anyway, I identified breaches I have coded in. Let's make sure that we
avoid them in the future.
