Package: system-tools-backends Version: 2.2.1-4 Severity: important Hi,
/var/run/system-tools-backends.pid has weird permissions on my system. I once saw it as: --wsr-Sr-T 1 root root 5 2007-05-01 08:41 system-tools-backends.pid But now it's rather: -r-sr-x--t 1 root root 4 2007-10-18 09:22 system-tools-backends.pid Rming it between dbus stop and start gives again: -r-sr-x--t 1 root root 4 2007-10-18 09:22 system-tools-backends.pid It's the only daemon with such permissions, I have no idea what they are for, but they look like a bug or misfeature and I'm worried about them, although I couldn't any direct security implication right now.
