@skipkayhil please update this PR to use thor main |
Encrypted keys were updated [previously][1] to restrict other users from reading the file by default. However, there is a brief period of time between an encrypted key being created and its permissions being set to 0600. This means that it is possible for another user to read that file during that time. This commit fixes that issue by setting the desired permissions when the file is created. The ability to use the `perm` option was added in Thor 1.2.2 so the minimum version was updated in the Railties gemspec. [1]: 4c6c357

Motivation / Background
Fixes #48135
Encrypted keys were updated previously to restrict other users from reading the file by default. However, there is a brief period of time between an encrypted key being created and its permissions being set to 0600. This means that it is possible for another user to read that file during that time.
Detail
This commit fixes that issue by setting the desired permissions when the file is created. The ability to use the
permoption was added in Thor 1.2.2 so the minimum version was updated in the Railties gemspec.Additional information
I've pointed this at my branch of Thor to show that rails/thor#820 would enable fixing this, but that would have to be changed to merge this.Done!Checklist
