It is almost the same flaw as the one found on the Cereus Network, in which players' accounts and hole cards were vulnerable to theft. The PokerTableRatings sleuths have embedded a video of them successfully stealing hole cards as they were dealt. They've been able to steal passwords and user names from multiple Cake Network skins. There are a few differences between this security risk and the Cereus Network risk and you can read up on it all at PokerTableRatings.com. Cake Poker Cardroom Manager Lee Jones posted a response on TwoPlusTwo about the issue. "Sure, when the issue came up in May, I asked our software management team. They told me that we were more secure than Cereus. When this all came to light a few hours ago and they got down into the actual code, it turned out they were wrong (as one of the senior managers just admitted to me)...I owe the entire Cake poker community an apology: I am very very sorry." Read the entire statement here and Lee answers questions from concerned community members in this thread.
