They would have easier access when they have the source.. Nobody can do perfect code, but letting people have access to the source of such a critical system is not a good idea in my oppinion.

There are two different kinds of hackers in the world.
One gets in and is happy with information. The other gets in and has to either profit monitarely or otherwise profit socially (deface)...
The ones that get in without you knowing, you will never know about. So long as they don't fuck with anything, the company who wrote the software will never mention it. Just tell you and update is available or auto update if that is your setup. Most porn hackers are a mixture of both. They get in, they get the password files, they get out and you never hear from them again. What you do hear from is the customers who are wondering why their account is blocked and who also don't appreciate it when you assume they must have traded their password with someone else.
