BlackBoxVoting.org reported a vulnerability in the Diebold Global Election Management System (GEMS) central tabulator.

A local authenticated user can enter a two-digit code in a certain "hidden" location to cause a second set of votes to be created on the system. This second set of votes can be modified by the local user and then read by the voting system as legitimate votes, the report said.
