    • Property Keywords security usability unix added
    • Property Summary changed from magic-folder permissions are inconsistent to Magic Folder: permissions of downloaded files are not set according to the user's umask

  • Ticket #2535 – Description

    v1 v7  
    1 During the demo with Zooko, Daira, Warner and Meejah last night we found yet another bug; The magic-folder downloader writes files with the original uploader's permissions intact but it should probably use the downloader's user's umask instead. If we do it like that then the user downloading files will have consistent permissions for all downloaded files.
