196199 - Downloaded file has permissions from temp directory, instead of directory being downloaded to

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 124307

(SeaMonkey :: Download & File Handling, defect)

Description

[Mark B]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

When one downloads a file, the permissions set on the file are that of the
user's temp directory, instead of the directory the file is actually being saved to.

For instance, my temp directory allows only myself and system to access the
files.  So when I save to a "common" directory, other users can't access the
file.  I have to manually change the permissions on the file, after I download it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure your temp directory to something restrictive (by default in XP, it is
 just you and System)
2. Create a directory with permissions that allow others to access its contents.
(Must be on same drive as temp directory)
3. Download a file to this directory.

Actual Results:  
Permissions on file are those of the temp directory.

Expected Results:  
It seems reasonable that the permissions on the file should be those of a file
created within the target directory.
