Aaron T. Myers updated HADOOP-6898: ----------------------------------- Attachment: hadoop-6898.0.txt Sorry for the delay, Nigel. Patch attached. > FileSystem.copyToLocal creates files with 777 permissions > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6898 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6898 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs, security > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Aaron T. Myers > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.22.0 > > Attachments: hadoop-6898.0.txt > > > FileSystem.copyToLocal ends up calling through to FileUtil.copy, which calls > create() on the target file system without passing any permission object. > Therefore, the file ends up getting created locally with 777 permissions, > which is dangerous -- even if the caller then fixes up permissions > afterwards, it exposes a window in which an attacker can open the file. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
