Changed permissions on /run in 23.10 - a bug or what?

I recently upgraded my Thinkpad T470 from 23.04 to 23.10. After the
upgrade I was getting no wireless connection. I finally found that
this was due to changed permissions on /run/Networkmanager.
On version 23.04 permissions are 0755 but on version 23.10 they are
0700, i.e. there is no general read access to /run/Networkmanager.
With the 0700 permissions NetworkManager fails to start successfully
and I get no WiFi access. If I manually reset the permissions to 0755
then 'systemctl restart NetworkManager' my WiFi works.
Has anyone else had this issue? If not then I think something else
must somehow be affecting the startup on my system but it's very
difficult to diagnose.
Any/all help would be very welcome.
