What were you trying to do?
Make xscreensaver read the user's password out of
/etc/security/passwd by making it setgid security.
What's wrong:
The file /etc/security/passwd is not group-readable.
What should have happened:
Whatever program is adding users to /etc/security/passwd
should be making it group-readable, just like the
/etc/security directory.
