I'm planning to upgrade my servers from 3.2-R to 4.3-R, and the systems are secure (no users have shell access, other than admins), but a lot of the web scripting relies on setuid scripts (for example, scripts that allow our users to modify our radius entries, or our web-editor, or even our change-your-password-via-the-web interface).
