http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0227
Description:
Previous versions of the slocate package were vulnerable to an
information-disclosure vulnerability. Slocate did not properly manage
database entries that specify names of files in protected directories.
Thus, for example, a user could see via slocate the names of files in a
directory chmodded 711.
