DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in mod_auth_openid, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive
information.

The security issue is caused due to the application creating a
database file (/tmp/mod_auth_openid.db) with insecure world-readable
permissions. This can be exploited to disclose the openid sessions.

The security issue is reported in versions prior to 0.7.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 0.7.
