+  <title>PHP setting leaks from .htaccess files on virtual hosts</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    If the server configuration &quot;php.ini&quot; file has
+    &quot;register_globals = on&quot; and a request is made to one virtual host
+    (which has &quot;php_admin_flag register_globals off&quot;) 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.

+    (which has &quot;php_admin_flag register_globals off&quot;) and the next

+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Depending on the server and site, an attacker may be able to exploit
+    global variables to gain access to reserved areas, such as MySQL passwords,
+    or this vulnerability may simply cause a lack of functionality. As a
+    result, users are urged to upgrade their PHP installations.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Gentoo ships PHP with &quot;register_globals&quot; set to &quot;off&quot;
+    by default.
+    </p>
+    <p>    
+    This issue affects both servers running Apache 1.x and servers running
+    Apache 2.x.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    No immediate workaround is available; a software upgrade is required.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All users are recommended to upgrade their PHP installation to 4.3.4-r4:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge sync
+    # emerge -pv ">=dev-php/mod_php-4.3.4-r4"
+    # emerge ">=dev-php/mod_php-4.3.4-r4"</code>
