Or look around at open source code you have permission to alter and use.

This is where you have to be careful. Once a particular system becomes common, then the miscreants step in and start hacking. That is definitely not something I want to be faced with. I'd rather have to deal with the security issues myself and not rely on open source to do it for me. phpbb is just one example of what open source software can present (security issues) to those using it. You have to be very careful and maintain those systems or there could be trouble.
