Yet another fix
Authored by: owsla on Jun 20, '08 08:36:11AM
This is yet another fix, suggested in the Slashdot thread. Open a Terminal as an admin user and do:

$ sudo defaults write /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Info NSAppleScriptEnabled YES
$ sudo plutil -convert xml1 /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Info.plist
$ sudo chmod 644 /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Info.plist
This seems to restrict ARDAgent to a standard AppleScript dictionary, which does not include the "do shell script" command.

Yet another fix

I tried this "fix" on Leopard. No luck. I can still execute the do shell script command.
