[Bro] access right changed on log directory

[Emmanuel TORQUATO]

Thanks Daniel,

I have used setgid to set read on the low privilege's group on the spool folder. Any files or folders created under spool by bro are now accessible by this group.

Broctl creates that directory, but it doesn't explicitly set or change its permissions.  You should check the umask of the root user on your system, and the umask setting for sudo (if you're using sudo to run broctl).  You want a umask of 0022.
