of these will result in an exploitable security risk.

I took what your guy said with a grain of salt, only because he called the
lack of a check for a successful open of the config file "horribly broken."

Have you run assp without a config file?  Try it...

It is a lot easier to destroy than create, and a lot easier to criticize
code than to submit patches.

"Exploitable risk" in ASSP is a controllable thing, without knowing a stitch
of Perl.  How do you run it?  As root, or administrator in Windows?  Whoops
- don't blame the code.       

You, as the system administrator, must determine what the risks are and
react appropriately.
