So long as you have your paths set correctly in your CGI scripts and you're
using the UI for creating sites, there should be no problems at all using
CGIWrap. The problems usually come about because you haven't correctly
supplied the full path information (from /home/sites/...) or that you're
using a modified httpd.conf to add your own virtual servers.

There are indeed security risks involved with disabling it, this is fairly
obvious in that's the whole point for using CGIWrap. It attempts stops
malicious scripting from allowing backdoors into your server.
