I can confirm the bug on 6.3 running Apache 2.0.52.

Furthermore, ANY system command inserted in the system() call can be 
executed.  This is a very serious bug.  Unpriviledged user or not, with 
an  .rhosts file on a potential attacker's end, scp would work just 
nicely, then a chmod, then execution of any script they wanted to upload. 

This issue is not to be taken lightly.

Until this issue is resolved, we have commented out the Plugin lines:
# AWStats output is replaced by a plugin output
if ($PluginMode) {
       my $function="BuildFullHTMLOutput_$PluginMode()";
       eval("$function");
       if ($? || $@) { error("$@"); }
       &html_end(0);
       exit 0;
}

If a plugin is called, it is apparently ignored and the stats are displayed.
