Unless I am totally wrong (I am not always right) and it is behaving differently from what I understand and what I am observing here then it would have been already sufficient to only chmod 0700. torchat/Tor and also tor.sh after creation (and on every start and also always replaces tor.sh with a fresh copy of that file which is needed anyways since there recently was a bugfix to that file).

TORCHAT INSTALL PATCH

I have now commited a patch to automatically chmod. the user's home directory is 0700 and I cannot read or write anything inside this user's home. At least this is how my linux box here behaves, I have just verified it by trying to read a chmod 0777 file from a different user. When the home folder itself has no permissions for other users then others should not be able to write *any* file within it or within any of its subfolders, no matter what modes these files have set. These are frequently read/execute by all. This is not terribly surprising since if you look at the source zipfile (which doesn't contain a top level directory!), src/Tor/tor.sh and src/Tor/torrc.txt are read-write by all and these get copied to ~/.torchat/Tor: if not os.path.exists(data_dir): os.mkdir(data_dir) #and create the folder 'Tor' with tor.exe and torrc.txt in it if necessary data_dir_tor = os.path.join(data_dir, 'Tor') if not os.path.exists(data_dir_tor): os.mkdir(data_dir_tor) if isWindows(): tor_exe = 'tor.exe' else: tor_exe = 'tor.sh' py(os.path.join('Tor', tor_exe), data_dir_tor) py(os.path.join('Tor', 'torrc.txt'), data_dir_tor) I don't see what protection being inside the home directory confers. torchat/Tor/tor_data: total 6032 -rw- 1 steve staff 15064 cached-certs -rw- 1 steve staff 526549 cached-consensus -rw- 1 steve staff 4181021 cached-descriptors -rw- 1 steve staff 1432341 cached-descriptors.new -rw- 1 steve staff 0 lock -rw- 1 steve staff 13691 state So anyone can read my buddy list and anyone can write my tor.sh and torrc.txt.
