logfiles world readable



Package: syslog,acct

Hello,

/var/log/auth.log and the other logfiels are world-readable. I think this is a
security problem. Especially in auth.log there are often Passwords logged
from users. In addition /var/accoun/pacct is readable, too. I think users
should not be able to see ever executed command on a system (without beeing
in group adm). Should i write a bug report for this, or is this an 'feature'
of an opn system?

Greetings
Bernd
