I've just purchased a license for Softaculous and tested a installation of SMF.

I know the standard SMF installation sets world writable permissions (or at least asks you to) on a couple of cache, log and upload folders in the root directory; however since cPanel comes default and also recommends using suphp and suexec, surely this isn't needed as the script would run as the owner and would have +w permissions anyway?

Would this not be a security risk have world writable folders?

Hi,

For suPHP Softaculous will try to detect the same.
If it finds it will not make a world writable permission.
You should however specify it manually in the Admin Settings as the detection itself depends on certain checks.
Here is the method to do it :
