Comment 1 for bug 393187

Thank you for using ufw and taking the time to report a bug.

This would also affect /etc/ufw, btw. Though I disagree that this is a security vulnerability (it is easy enough to figure out the general firewall policy is if you have login access to the machine). The files are world-readable for administrative purposes. That said, I do think it would be a security enhancement to make the directories 750, and plan to do that. This will give hints to distributions to chgrp the directories to an administrative group.
