definately a problem

any user on an osx system legal or not can access this information, you don't need any kind of administrative-privileges:
---------
see@immortelle:/var> ls -alF
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 20 root wheel 636 Jan 3 1970 ./
drwxr-xr-x 15 root wheel 466 Jan 3 1970 db/
---------
see@immortelle:/var/db/SystemConfiguration> ls -alF
total 80
drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 264 Jan 3 1970 ./
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 34707 May 4 18:45 preferences.xml
---------
so it's definitely a problem on any setting where you have several users.
