Subject: 23.1.50; SECURITY: Tramp creates -rwxrwxrwx permission files with /su and /sudo method
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2009 18:16:30 +0300
Message-ID: <87ljnbax4h.fsf@iki.fi>
When method /su: or /sudo: is used to _create_ a file the file's
permission will be set to -rwxrwxrwx (777), that is, allow everything
for everyone. Obviously this is serious security bug. Steps to
reproduce:
1. Start Emacs as a normal user:
emacs -Q
2. Create a file in a directory to which the user who launched this
Emacs session doesn't have write access.
C-x C-f /su::/root/test.txt
3. Write some content to the file and save it with "C-x C-s".
4. Check file's permissions. It has 777 permission bits:
$ ls -l /root/test.txt
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2009-06-29 17:58 /root/test.txt
For some reason, if I create similar file to the same user's home
directory who launched this Emacs session (/su::$HOME/test.txt) then it
gets 644 permissions (probably honoring umask settings).

It seems to work perfectly now. Huge thanks! I'm happy to close this
bug.
