Andy Kurth resolved VCL-808.
----------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

There are no injection checks on the input entered via any of the _vcld 
--setup_ options.  However, in order to run _vcld --setup_ one would need 
console access to a management node and the command would probably need to run 
as root in order to work.  With this level of access, it can be implied that 
the person can obtain full r/w access to the database.  Adding checks really 
wouldn't add much security.

> vcld allows user values that contain HTML which is not cleaned on web 
> interface
