world-writable output files
Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2023 8:17 pm
Hi
"makemkvcon mkv" seems to create files with permissions like the following
After running this file through handbrake, the permissions are the following:
I only noticed the files being world-writable because of the different permissions of makemkv’s vs handbrake’s output.
It seems like makemkv does not honor the umask:
Am I doing anything wrong or is that normal?
Is it intended?
Is there a way to change that?
Files being world-writable is a Very Bad Idea in some setups …
