Ok, then.
I find the "users" list on fedoraproject challenging.
The stated vulnerability is a known bug in alpine, and it has been there
for a long time. Many lists have complaints about it, but it doesn't seem
to get the attention of the developers/maintainers.
Likewise, ours are set to 775, inboxes set to 600 (that way dovecot
doesn't complain).
