Most likely, you are seeing a message like

"We are using special permissions on <some file or directory>. New
permissons are: <some permission>"

Is that right? If so, you're being confused by an ambiguous and
poorly-worded message.

DU is not saying that a problem exists which is being fixed; it's
letting you know that weird (form a traditional Unix view) permissions
are being used for that particular file or folder.
