Package: checksecurity
Version: 2.0.7-1
Severity: minor
I've found what looks like a minor thinko with a two-character fix
here in /var/lib/dpkg/info/checksecurity.postinst:
mkdir /var/log/setuid
chown root:adm /var/log/setuid || true
chmod 640 /var/log/setuid || true
Giving a directory permissions of 640 = "drw-r-----" seems a strange
choice. Were you perhaps thinking of "drwxr-x---" = chmod 750?
(Why does nobody ever use mkdir -m, anyway?)
