Package: john
Version: 1.6-40
Severity: important
Tags: security

I note the following changelog entry:

    - Added /var/run/john to DEB_FIXPERMS_EXCLUDE: the location needs
      to be safe from normal user reading

If any versions were uploaded to unstable which had /var/lib/john set
to any mode besides 0700, then dpkg will not have updated the
directory to the mode used by new .debs.  The closest fix to a proper
one is probably to postinst, to be run after every configuration of an
instance of a package:

dpkg-statoverride --list /var/run/john >/dev/null ||
        chmod -v 0700 /var/run/john

Description: 
 john       - active password cracking tool
Closes: 375850 403855 412797
Changes: 
 john (1.6-40.1) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Non-maintainer upload.
   * High-urgency for RC bugfix.
   * The following bug fixes are mostly cherry-picked from an omnibus patch
     by Justin Pryzby <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
   * Complete rewrite of maintainer scripts to neither remove nor edit
     conffiles (Closes: #375850)
      - the debconf settings are not necessary for package operation,
        so just don't use debconf, and remove debconf-related files from
        debian directory (incidentally closes: #412797)
      - preserves settings in preinst, rather than moving conffiles to
        foo.old
      - do the conffile relocation in preinst (not postinst, which
        inhibits dpkg diffs when they should be displayed)
      - the cronjob in /etc/cron.d does nothing if the executable isn't
        +x, so doesn't need to be commented out on uninstallation
      - minor edits to debian/README to reflect these changes
   * Set /var/run/john to mode 0700 in postinst configure unless a
     dpkg-statoverride exists (Closes: #403855)
   * On uninstallation, remove restore file from /var/lib, not /usr/share;
     and do so in postrm remove, not prerm remove.  On upgrade, if restore
     file exists in /usr/share but not in /var/lib, move it in postinst.
