Summary: Gaze caching and user permissions
Product: Sorcery
Version: Post-1.0
Platform: x86
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Gaze
AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: ace118 AT hotmail.com


When using the new caching of gaze, if the first search was done by a
non-root
user, then root and that user have write access to the cache, if created by
root, only root does. When this happens, gaze functions run by an
unprivileged
user contain permission denied errors:
/usr/sbin/gaze: line 393: /tmp/libcodex.findspellbyname.cache: Permission
denied
/usr/sbin/gaze: line 394: /tmp/libcodex.findspellbyname.cache: Permission
denied

Perhaps the cache's permissions should be changed on creation so that all
users can modify the cache, of if this is a security concern, to check
permissions before attempting to write to the file.
