Package: softhsm2-common
Version: 2.2.0-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The file permissions on /etc/softhsm and /etc/softhsm/softhsm2.conf seem
overly restrictive. There is only one file in the directory, and the
contents of the file (by default) are identical to the file
/usr/share/softhsm/softhsm2.conf, which is readable by anyone.

I guess that creating a group to restrict access to tokens under
/var/lib/softhsm makes sense, but there doesn't seem to be a reason to
restrict access to the default config file that simply points to that
directory.

Thanks for your consideration!
