Description Chris Ricker 2002-06-22 04:19:20 UTC 
This bug also exists in Red Hat 7.3 (bug #65081) and needs to be fixed there as
well.

The mgetty-sendfax lockfile directory is world-writable and not sticky.

[root@localhost outgoing]# ls -ld /var/spool/fax/outgoing/locks/
drwxrwxrwx    2 root     root         4096 May 26 23:05
/var/spool/fax/outgoing/locks/
[root@localhost outgoing]# 


At a minimum, this should be chmod 1777
