Submission + - SQL-Ledger forks over security dispute

einhverfr writes: "A serious authentication flaw has been found in the popular open source accounting program SQL-Ledger which allows users to bypass login requirements. What is unusual about this problem is those who reported it are now offering a fork of the software after accusing the maintainer, Dieter Simader, of being unwilling to work with them on a fix. Mr Simader, for his part is accusing those who forked the software of not playing fair. The individual who released the security alert has an entry on his blog. Which raises the interesting question: Who do you trust with your accounting data?"
