Description of problem:
I registered for an account and it didn't have any protection from spam.

The Red Hat Bugzilla team doesn't believe that we need a CAPTCHA image for our site. New users are required to click a link that is sent to their e-mail address, which proves that an automated system is not used.

You may wish to raise this issue with the upstream Bugzilla project at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org

I certainly will.  You probably already know this, but I will say it any way.  Even robots know how to check their email.
