Very bad security flaw in Wallet.app UPDATED: read the description

http://www.acrylicapps.com/

IF YOU EXPERIENCE this bug, after mentioning it to the developer, he promptly replied ( 3 minutes later ! ) Reset the password, and make sure the application is up to date.

Resetting the password did indeed fix it !
Thats what I call service, support small companies, they rock, especially on the Mac!

The application Wallet, suffers from a horrible bug that allows any combination of characters to unlock the database, as long as all the characters from the REAL password are contained in the text inputed. This is horrible, because not only is this application used for passwords, but also sensitive personal information as well, such as credit cards, drivers license, etc

I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.1 and Wallet 3.1.2, both versions are the latest version.
