Package: grub-common
Version: 1.98+20100804-14+squeeze1
Tags: patch security
Severity: minor

grub.cfg with password_pbkdf2 is still readable for anyone.  It's not
too bad to restrict file access in this case too (for now,
debian/patches/grub.cfg_400.patch does it only if this file has
"password" directive).

Sid's version affected too.
