If making the existing code Open Source introduces security flaws, then those flaws already exist and can be abused without anyone knowing that something is wrong. More people seeing the code and working on it can be very helpful. Also right now the code for Minion can be "decompiled" into plain text. It's not really secret.
I might have written that miss-understandable.
What I meant is that the owners of ESOUi would have to change security measurements and access to the website database etc. if it would be open source. Basically what you had already explained in your answer post more at the top (tokens, etc.).
I'm not webd eveloper and do not know exactly what would be needed to make it secure, maybe nothng special than already existing code and functions
