Subject: [PATCH] script/lei: umask(077) before execve
Date: Fri, 17 Sep 2021 07:12:30 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210917121230.15341-1-e@80x24.org> (raw)

While my MUA also runs umask(077) unconditionally, not all
MUAs do.  Additionally, pagers may support writing its buffer
to disk, so ensure anything else we spawn has umask(077).
