Resolution
The forthcoming major release should include a modification to address this concern, dependent on quality assurance testing.
In the interim, a workaround is to edit the permissions of certificate files to 0600 within the VRTSat_lhc directory. These measures enhance the security of the certificates without altering the permissions of the entire directory.
Example:
#chmod 0600 /var/VRTSat_lhc/
