Package: exim4-daemon-heavy
Version: 4.34-6
Severity: normal

The files in /var/spool/exim4/scan are created with mode 666.  I don't
know what the right mode should be (660, perhaps), but I'm sure they
shouldn't be world-writable.

Here's what they look like while scanning is going on:

    Mon Nov  8 09:41:37 EST 2004
    uid=106(Debian-exim) gid=106(Debian-exim) groups=106(Debian-exim)
    total 16
    drwxr-s---  2 Debian-exim clamav 4096 2004-11-08 09:41 .
    drwxr-s---  3 Debian-exim clamav 4096 2004-11-08 09:41 ..
    -rw-rw-rw-  1 Debian-exim clamav    5 2004-11-08 09:41 1CRAi8-0005xU-TS-00000.com
    -rw-rw-rw-  1 Debian-exim clamav  469 2004-11-08 09:41 1CRAi8-0005xU-TS.eml
    -rw-rw-rw-  1 Debian-exim clamav    0 2004-11-08 09:41 1CRAi8-0005xU-TS_scanner_output

I used this to generate the above:

    av_scanner = cmdline:/bin/sh -c '(dir=%s; umask 77; date; id; ls -la $dir; cp -r $dir /tmp) >>/tmp/t.scanner 2>&1':\
		  none such:'(.+)'
