    /tmp
    /var/tmp (sometimes a symlink to /tmp)
    /home
    /var/spool/mail/username
    
    Mail queue injection dir on some systems is world writeable and readable.
    
    Various X games have score files that can be written to/read from.
    
    Many 3rd party software packages create world readable/writeable files and
    directories:
    
    find / -type f -perm +002
    
    find / -type d -perm +002
    
    Lotsa places. Hence the importance of segregating areas users can write to,
    directly (/tmp) or indirectly (/var/log).
