+ Product: Horde
+ Version: other
+ Platform: PHP Code
+ OS/Version: Linux
+ Status: NEW   
+ Resolution: 
+ Severity: major
+ Priority: P1
+ Component: Core
+ Area: BUILD
+ AssignedTo: chuck at horde.org

+ Summary: xml rpc is insecure (only currently noted in Kronolith)
+ 
+ Using basic HTTP auth it is possible to use the xml rpc layer to extract data
+ (for example from Kronolith's calendars) from other people's calendars *despite*
+ specifically marking those calendars as private.
+ 
+ It would seem that when listing events, the access rights to each calendar name
+ supplied in the request are not checked, thus allowing any user to manipulate
+ all calendars in the system.
+ 
+ This is using CVS HEAD of Kronolith, Horde and Turba as of 11pm 18th April BST.
+ 
+ Thanks,
+ 
+ Matthew
