/tmp
/var/tmp (sometimes a symlink to /tmp)
/home
/var/spool/mail/username

Mail queue injection dir on some systems is world writeable and readable.

Various X games have score files that can be written to/read from.

Many 3rd party software packages create world readable/writeable files and
directories:

find / -type f -perm +002

find / -type d -perm +002

Lotsa places. Hence the importance of segregating areas users can write to,
directly (/tmp) or indirectly (/var/log).
