Freaking Huge Hole in 1.1.2
Brought to you by:

If you enable public access, they can not only edit previous public posts, but also posts made by the admin!!
Public posts should not be editible at all, or at least give the option to be turned off. What can happen is a spammer can modify previous posts (which what happened to my calendar, I had to trash the entire site extras table)
They were able to get in and modify the site extras table for ALL previous events.
This is a huge hole.

You can control 'Public Access' permission to edit events with the 'User Access Control' under Settings.

The public access wasn't given access to the admin calendar to edit it. only view it. There should never be a case where the public access can edit the admin calendar, especially since there is no way to select that ability in the user access control
(under Allow Access to Other Users' Calendar)
I only allowed them access to add events. (I even tested this out with trying to edit
admin events and got denied) However, they were able to edit the site_extras table, and completely trash my calendar.
This is still a huge hole

The authors don't seem to think this is a serious problems. It's fixed in cvs, but no announcement has been made and the fix hasn't been ported tot he 1.0.x series.
