~/.config/Caprine/caprine.json is world-writable
On Linux, Caprine creates its settings file (settings.json) with 666 permissions, allowing any user to modify the data. Perhaps there is some very good reason for this, but likely it should use 644 (-rw-r--r--), meaning that only the user whose home directory the settings file is in can modify it.
If changed to 644 manually, Caprine will set it back to 666.
