Php_info()

[kvv20]

Using php_info function I get following warning
"Warning: phpinfo() has been disabled for security reasons"

Which part of this function may be hazardous to the site's security?

The part where it exposes valuable apache configuration information, etc.

You can ask a account manager for certain parts, but you can't access it yourself. PHP v3 may have it, but you'd have to ask.

No version of php has it; it reveals information such as paths on how it was compiled, etc, which we don't want the general public to see.

Ah. I stand corrected then. phpinfo could be useful, but with such a good webhost already, we don't want the information possibly being used against the servers, etc.
