Insight
If the server configuration ' php.ini ' file has ' register_globals = on ' and a request is made to one virtual host (which has ' php_admin_flag register_globals off ' ) and the next request is sent to the another virtual host (which does not have the setting) global variables may leak and may be used to exploit the site.
