Why does the /var/cache/coolkey directory has world writable permissions ?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

The directory /var/cache/coolkey has the world writable rights. It violates security policies.

# ls -ld /var/cache/coolkey
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Mar  4 14:16 /var/cache/coolkey

Is this needed? Can it be removed?
