- From the last discussion of this:

http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2012/09/24/4
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2012/09/24/8
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2012/09/24/9
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2012/09/26/6

Basically I pointed out we need to define what information
MUST/SHOULD/SHOULD NOT/MUST NOT be marked as sensitive/etc so we can
apply appropriate file permissions and the discussion died.

So no CVE for this. Set your umask to be safe for now (and probably
forever =).
