Public bug reported:

Fedora / Redhat ships openssh with a patch which adds "-m force
permission" flag to sftp-server.

This is quite a common feature request / support request on the various
stackexchange sites - https://superuser.com/questions/332284/in-sftp-
how-to-set-the-default-permission-for-all-files-in-a-folder

You will see that someone has answered "add -m" there which is indeed
the simplest answer by a distance but unfortunately it's a non standard
patch:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openssh/blob/f34/f/openssh-6.7p1
-sftp-force-permission.patch

This I think should supersede #563216 because they have been shipping
this in production presumably since at least 2015 (I see it in fedora 22
branch), so it is a known stable patch compared to the one suggested
there.
