Hello Matthias,

today I found some time to have the closer look on the ids.cgi file.

I was able to reproduce this issue and sent a fix to this mailing list.

Thanks for finding and reporting.

Sadly I was not able to reproduce this behaviour, but I also did the
test with the fixed first issue. May this also fixed the second issue.

This is not directly a CGI related issue. It may come from a double
usage of the same rule SID. I did some quick analysis, found some SID
related issues on our rules and reported them to Michael.
