Description Daniel Crisman 2012-08-14 13:47:03 EDT

Created attachment 604377 [details]
patch

The patch for bug 680798 which "fixes the issue by creating temp file with umask 0000" wants to limit access to the temp file so that should be a umask of 0777.

Use of mkstemp with recent versions of glibc covers up this error a bit as the file is created "with permissions 0600".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
From logrotate-3.7.8-15.el6.src.rpm
