Security problem with GRUB 0.91

[Aaron D. Marasco]

I am guessing this problem exists in other versions also. If I go to a 
password protected menu option, I can happily press 'e' and see the 
password if it is plaintext. Even worse, I can choose the password command 
line and then delete it ('d') and then boot ('b') without the password 
prompt ever coming up.

(I am not a member of this list, so either discuss amongst yourselves or cc 
me on replies that you want more info for - I don't see where any more info 
is needed.)
