From aeeb6888ca3ee5122793b37c5aacc6c960b02c37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bram Moolenaar Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2017 16:45:19 +0100 Subject: patch 8.0.1287: temp file used for viminfo may have wrong permissions Problem: The temp file used when updating the viminfo file may have the wrong permissions if setting the group fails. Solution: Check if the group matches and reduce permissions if not. --- src/ex_cmds.c | 29 ++++++++++++++++++++++++----- src/version.c | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/ex_cmds.c b/src/ex_cmds.c index 154372883..f86e141fc 100644 --- a/src/ex_cmds.c +++ b/src/ex_cmds.c @@ -2007,7 +2007,8 @@ write_viminfo(char_u *file, int forceit) /* * If we can't create in the same directory, try creating a - * "normal" temp file. + * "normal" temp file.
