[Details/new features]

3.2.6
=====

Fix
- Fix a security problem that when hsqldb starts it listen to all interfaces and used default password. Now restrict to localhost only to avoid public exposure as this exposes database content and may allow unexpected stored procedures to be run. Thanks to the user reporting it.
