Even though this is semi-offtopic, it is still possible to hide
malicious code in open source software.  It is  difficult, but it's
theoratically possible by hiding malicious code in the binary of a
compiler that adds malicious code to other programs.  

See http://www.wbglinks.net/pages/reads/hack***plained/thompson.html
for more information about the theory involving the "cc hack".
