Ubuntu Security Notice USN-215-1 - Thomas Wolff and Miloslav Trmac discovered a race condition in the fetchmailconf program.

During this time, the file was world readable on a standard system (unless the user manually tightened his umask setting), which could expose email passwords to local users.
