If I log into the web interface before running the exploit it does
crash cups (and if I don't login at least konqueror doesn't hang:).

On the first execution of the exploit it only inserts 95 feeds and
doesn't crash, but if I re run the exploit (with a different feed
name) when after it reaches 100 feeds in total (first run + second
run) cupsd crashes.

Done
