the sudoers file to allow the www user that privilige?
Are you sure that cdrecord needs to run as root? You might check into
changin permissions on the device itself. Or if this is a trusted
machine/environment (I assume it is, 'cause most people don't write web apps
to burn CDs), then you could suid cdrecord itself as root. Be sure you
understand

CGIs should have 500 permission and SHOULD NOT contain the password.
Instead write a perl module which return the database_handle and put that
together with the other modules (/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/). Then just
call the module in your CGI script.
