Pure oxygen (O2) is incredibly flammable, as such environments with an increased oxygen content should present a fire hazard. Less hazardous than a plasma fire, but you shouldn't be lighting up cigarettes near the pure O2 canisters or in a room recently re-pressurized with straight O2.
By extension, it would also make smoking or setting fires in the engineering, medbay or toxins incredibly ill advised as these places could potentially have a higher than normal oxygen ratio within them.
Linked are a pair of (relatively) informative videos regarding the hazards of oxygen fires.
