Package: puppet
Version: 0.20.1-1
Severity: important

Puppet has a default mode of 1777 for 'rundir', and will set
this mode without any explicit configuration.

The Debian configuration for puppet sets rundir to /var/run.
Hence the permissions for /var/run are set to 1777 unless
overridden.

A quick grep for 1777 in the source shows that the offending
code is in configuration.rb.

Cheers,
Michael Spang
