Package: arora
Version: 0.2-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
using KDE, if Arora is started from another user for the first time, it creates
the ".local/" directory and
and its content (".local/share/", ".local/share/data/",
".local/share/data/Arora/") with "drwxr-xr-x" mode.
e.g.
at...@foscolo:~$ ls -al | fgrep local
drwx------ 3 athos athos 4096 2010-04-23 16:04 .local
at...@foscolo:~$ xhost +local:
non-network local connections being added to access control list
at...@foscolo:~$ su cdatt

cd...@foscolo:/home/athos$ cd

I'm not sure if this could be a generic security problem - obviously not if
home directories are not
readable from other users - so I decide to classify it as a normal bug.
You can change, if you want.
Probably this is not an Arora specific problem but a QT or KDE issue.
I know that this is a very unusual way of using a browser but, in my opinion,
it could be useful.
Thanks in advance.
