reporting matching files, locate would not correctly respect the
parent directory's 'read' bits. This could result in filenames being
displayed when the file owner had expected them to remain hidden from
other system users.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
