UberSocial, perhaps the most popular non-native BlackBerry Twitter App available, may have a major security flaw, nerdberry.net reports.

After logging into Twitter and changing the password for the writers user account,  and logging out of Twitter, the writer still had full access to the account without changing the password on his BlackBerry device.

The fix to reset everything is to log out of the application then log back in, but since UberSocial is meant to run in the background, a user may forget to do this.

This is a major security issue if someone loses or misplaces their phone, and could be a leak in the security software that prevents fake logins.
