Hi,
Please have a look at:
http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/484472
This is really a critical thing if sing was installed with
suid 0 it allows every user on the system to get root access
and/or to overwrite arbitrary files.
Please fix.
A CVE id for this issue is pending, I'll add it to this bug
report if I got it.
Kind regards
Nico
