Flushing the toilet can affect the water temperature in the shower because both the toilet and the shower are connected to the same water supply system. When the toilet is flushed, it temporarily reduces the amount of water available for the shower, causing a drop in water pressure and potentially affecting the temperature of the water coming out of the shower.

Why does your shower leak once the toilet is flushed?

The drains for the shower, toilet and sink all connect to a common line.

You need plumbing repair. The shower leak you mention should only be in the shower, or else you have a broken drain line as well.
