Bug#108567: [SECURITY] xinetd in woody still has umask 0000



Package: xinetd
Version: 1:2.1.8.8.p3-2
Severity: grave
Tags: security woody

This version of xinetd does NOT incorporate the 000 umask
vulnerability patched in potato.  To test this i created a fake telnet
service which runs a shell script that echos the umask into a newly
created file, the file was created mode 0666 and the umask written to
the file was 0000.   xinetd was stopped and started from a root shell
having a 022 umask.
