Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
open office creates some world-writable config files. while this is not
a problem in itself because the parent directories are locked away
properly it is a strange setup.
run the following command to list them:
find $HOME/.openoffice.org/3/ -perm -o+w -type f -ls
example output
6504949 8 -rwxrwxrwx 1 username users 6840 Dez 5 2009
/home/info/username/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/modern_en-US.sog

6504930 8 -rwxrwxrwx 1 username users 5271 Dez 5 2009
/home/info/username/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/palette_en-US.soc
the files do not exist in all profiles (and are not automatically
recreated after moving away the config folder) but i tried on several
machines and all profiles that make regular use of open office happend
to have these files...
