I just noticed that wordpress.spec has: %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/wordpress/wp-config.php which results in ownership of root.root, permissions 0644. However, wp-config.php is quite likely to contain sensitive information, particularly the database password in plaintext: /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', 'PLAINTEXTPASSWORD'); as well as this whole chunk: /**#@+ * Authentication Unique Keys and Salts. * * Change these to different unique phrases! * You can generate these using the {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/ WordPress.org secret-key service} * You can change these at any point in time to invalidate all existing cookies. This will force all users to have to log in again. * * @since 2.6.0 */ so I think it really ought to be root.apache , 0640. Affects all releases, I believe, and possibly EPEL.
