I've had a very quick look at zabbix. I should be doing lots
of other work, so maybe procrastination IS good for security ;-)
There are a number of basic but severe problems in the code. I'm
not sure where to send details that someone else could maybe
pick up and continue researching, so I'll send a quick list with
the problems I noticed privately. If someone has more time at
hand, I think zabbix would make a good audit target.
cheers,
Max
