Symlinks often (always?) show as 777 permissions. If you look at the
actual file that it links to, you'll see the permissions are fine:
[darose@daroseneo ~]$ ls -l
/etc/ca-certificates/extracted/cadir/Verisign_Class_1_Public_Primary_Certification_Authority_-_G3.pem
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 1602 Dec 22 09:54
/etc/ca-certificates/extracted/cadir/Verisign_Class_1_Public_Primary_Certification_Authority_-_G3.pem

Hello!
When I'm doing "cd /etc/ssl/certs/ && ls -al" I see something like this:
[...]
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 102 21. Dez 17:56
Verisign_Class_1_Public_Primary_Certification_Authority_-_G3.pem ->
../../ca-certificates/extracted/cadir/Verisign_Class_1_Public_Primary_Certification_Authority_-_G3.pem
[...]
All certificates are publicly writable.
I never set chmod to 777 on this directory and I see a great security
lack here.
Any program could inject its own certificate there, you should know this
isn't good ;)
Tell me whether this is just an issue on my own system or a general issue.
