https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=342683 Summary: konqueror ignores umask when copying files Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: R.Vickers@cs.rhul.ac.uk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I work on a shared system, and therefore always run with a umask of 077. I was alarmed to discover that Konqueror appears to ignore this umask when copying files, thus creating a security exposure. To reproduce: $ umask 077 $ touch junk1 $ chmod a+r junk1 $ konqueror & Navigate to junk1, then use right-click to copy it to junk2 $ ls -l junk* The example above may not look like a security exposure, but the same thing happens if the file being copied is on a password-protected SMB share. Products such as cp, tar and scp honour the umask unless told not to. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
