The cursewords that would have been used in Latin would have been colloquial and therefore not likely to have been written down. The language that passed through the ages was a formal one, passed on by monks, so it is not likely that these colloquialisms remain. I study Latin and as far as I know there are only rude words and no known swear words.
Most Latin curses you'll see are neologisms. People take elements from real words and combine them to make new ones. I can't think of any off the top of my head, though. I might have some written in my Latin notebook from 9th grade. I can try to find it when I get home.
Latin swearwords found in Catullus's poetry, and in graffiti... er..."Lupa" (1st decelension, just means wolf) meant "prostitute" or "bitch", "leo" (3rd dec. just meant lion) for "pimp". "Culus" (2nd dec.) meant arse, caco "I shit".
"Busirape!" meant graverobber. "illigitemes" (sp?)=bastard but that might have been a neologism
Hope that helps
