Package(s):setup CVE #(s):
Created:March 30, 2015 Updated:April 27, 2015
Description: From the Mageia advisory:

An issue has been identified in Mageia 4's setup package where the /etc/shadow and /etc/gshadow files containing password hashes were created with incorrect permissions, making them world-readable (mga#14516).

This update fixes this issue by enforcing that those files are owned by the root user and shadow group, and are only readable by those two entities.
