How can you be sure?  Does the software in question ever write any
files?  Can the content of those files be influenced from outside the
system?  Is every existing file on the system harmless if interpreted as
PHP?

That the software is using an "include" to retrieve what appears to be
user data additionally gives me the heebeejeebies.  I'd want to check
that the files so generated cannot possibly contain PHP code.  Little
Bobby Tables might have a different "ethnic" name >:-}.
