I'm on a shared Linux host and have been wondering about security and directory "other" ["world"] permissions. The defaults are 755. The 'others' [world] can read them only. Is there a security hole if a dir on the doc root if a directory has permissions 757? If there is a security problem, what is it? Thanks...
