*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

You have been subscribed to a public security bug by Iain Lane (laney):

quassel-core creates /var/lib/quassel (/var/cache/quassel in older versions) and /var/log/quassel as world-readable directories.
The auto-generated SSL certificate+key file /var/lib/quasselCert.pem is also world-readable. This is especially dangerous when the administrator replaces it with a real certificate and doesn't change the permissions.
