Andreas Fritiofson 6d54d90541 CVE-2018-5704: Prevent some forms of Cross Protocol Scripting attacks
OpenOCD can be targeted by a Cross Protocol Scripting attack from
a web browser running malicious code, such as the following PoC:

var x = new XMLHttpRequest();
x.open("POST", "http://127.0.0.1:4444", true);
x.send("exec xcalc\r\n");

This mitigation should provide some protection from browser-based
attacks and is based on the corresponding fix in Redis:
