It's not managed. Any script on the server can read or set variables in the server scope. If two scripts reference the same variable, it is in fact the same variable. This has nothing to do with Application.cfc or Application.cfm or anything else. And yes, of course, there's room for error. In the same way, two scripts within a single application could clobber each other's application variables.
