Updates for adduser and shadow were both uploaded to hirsute-proposed
yesterday as per https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-
discuss/2021-January/018901.html:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shadow/1:4.8.1-1ubuntu8
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/adduser/3.118ubuntu5

shadow has already migrated to the release pocket, and with any luck
adduser will migrate soon too which should resolve this issue.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  On a fresh dapper install i noticed that the file permissons for the
  home directory for the user created by the installer is set to 755,
  giving read access to everyone on the system.

  Surely this is a bad idea? If your set on the idea can we atleast have
  a option during the boot proccess?

  Also new files that are created via the console ('touch' etc.) are
  done so with '644' permissons, is there anything that can be done
  here? nautlius seems to create files at '600', which is a better
  setting.
