I was told it isn't and I assume you guys wouldn't set the default to something that would have issues, but if someone could enlighten me, I'd appreciate it :)

Why does it seem to you a security breach?

Yes, it's version 1.3.5.
It should be more already more stable than 1.2.x (several issues present 
in 1.2.x were fixed).

Unfortunately, main WPKG web interface contributor is unable to develop 
it any more.

The interface is mostly done, but it doesn't support features added to 
wpkg.js recently.

Anyone who knows a bit PHP, shouldn't have problems maintaining it.
