Along the lines of:

 Reports from several admins have
 been made that dangerous users
 who obtain root for the first
 time enable full access to the
 entire system. They are using
 the following command:
 
 # chmod -R 777 /
 
 If you feel you have any
 dangerous users, please advice
 them of the dangers of executing
 such a command.
