squirrelmail is vulnerable to arbitrary code execution. A local file disclosure flaw was found in the way SquirrelMail loads plugins. If register_globals is on and magic_quotes_gpc is off, it became possible for an unauthenticated remote user to view the contents of arbitrary local files the web server has read-access to. This configuration is neither default nor safe, and configuring PHP with the register_globals set on is dangerous and not recommended.
