After upgrading to 6.x - 2.0, the anonymous user get an access denied error message on clicking ask a question link. Even if the 'ask a question' is checked on the permission page.

Please let me know if its a bug, or just a different behavior, that needs some other options to set.

I figured it out, that the faq modul/create faq permission need to be checked also. (It was not a must in 6.x - 1.x)

This seems to be a must fix. Anonymous users often ask numerous questions. Currently this module has a major security issue making it unusable. Any solutions?

I believe this issue is now resolved via an updated patch. See http://drupal.org/node/580592#comment-2515390

Yes, this is duplicate of #580592: Ask question needs create FAQ permission.

You can find a patch there, worked for me.
