Please use CVE-2013-0337 for nginx world readable log files. Also
Fedora 16 (and I assume 17/18) are affected by this:
# ls -la /var/log/nginx/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Feb 21 21:18 .
drwxr-xr-x. 28 root root 4096 Feb 21 21:17 ..
- -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Feb 21 21:18 access.log
- -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Feb 21 21:18 error.log
Sigh. I'm guessing a lot of other web servers are vulnerable by
default on Linux and BSD distros too. Anyone care to make such a list
and send it in?
