--------------------------------------

             Summary: Local file system on Linux may create files and directories initially with wider permissions than intended.
                 Key: HADOOP-11415
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11415
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
            Reporter: Chris Nauroth


As discussed in HADOOP-11321, the local file system implements file and directory creation as a two-step process: create followed by chmod to set the caller's requested permissions.  This causes a brief window in which the new file or directory may have wider permissions than what the caller requested.  HADOOP-11321 fixed this specifically for Windows as a side effect of fixing a bug in writing to an SMB share.  This issue tracks fixing it specifically for Linux.
