Binary package hint: quassel
At boot, quasselcore does not connect to a postgresql server (a separate
server, I didn't try localhost).
My guess is that quasselcore tries to start before the network is up.
After a reboot of the server, this will leave the core in a blank state.
Anyone can connect. The first user that does will become administrator
and can then configure a database, or connect to one, so I'm marking
this as a security bug. It remains to be seen how bad a stolen IRC
client is, but if you have multiple users, the chance that this happens
is high.
Workaround: restart the quasselcore after boot before anyone can
connect.
