hi List,
I'm just trying out the very nice little calendar feevcal. small and 
nice, at first I was so happy, after I fixed some translation-bugs and 
improved html-output I was more happy.

but today i found something rather not so nice:

If you have feevcal in your page and put in the url by hand like
http://yoursite.com/index.php?id=where-you-placed-the-calendar&iden=0&view=6%20&no_cache=1 
(important: view=6)
you can get all frontend-users by their ids by the variable iden. user 
after user. the hole typo3-installation. if no extra template is 
configured in the typoscript-Template of your site, everybody who can 
see the calendar can have all Data of the page-fe-users: Name, Email, 
Adress, Telephone, Fax...

is this safe?? (ok, in won't crush your server and things like that, but..)

on the other side this little thing should not make you uninstall a very 
useful nice extension

so if you are using feevcal in a non-restricted section of your page, 
better use your own calendar-template:
copy agenda.tpl and take out all (sensible) data of the 
###TEMPLATE_USER### section

in your typoscript-template:
plugin.tx_feevcal_pi1.templateFile = 
fileadmin/where-you-put-your-templates/agenda.tpl


Best regards
