I am running Debian but I think this should be the same on Fedora.

Something like this would help you find all world writable files:

find / -perm -ugo=w

If you wanted strictly files (i.e. not directories) you could do the 
following:

find / -type f -perm -ugo=w

For the SUID this word probably work:

find / -perm +ugo=s

'man find' or 'info find' may have more information.   There also may be 
other ways.
