So, are you saying that it is trivial for a hacker to look like the postmaster
to listserv without actually getting onto the postmaster account or listserv?
If this is so, that is security whole that should certainly be fixed.
If it is necessary for someone to actually get on to listserv or get on
to a postmaster account to do this then I do not see this as a security
breach.
