security assessment

[First Last <y2kdis@atenista.net>]

i need a folder to put my scripts and save the query results, so i made a "output" directory under my default web folder and made it read-write-execute enabled for the default web user (i.e., "www-data"). then i changed its mode to 744 and assigned ownership to "www-data." the scripts won't run and the queries won't save into files unless i do the chmod and chown. does this move create a security threat to my system?
