> FileSystem.copyToLocal ends up calling through to FileUtil.copy, which calls
> create() on the target file system without passing any permission object.
> Therefore, the file ends up getting created locally with 777 permissions,
> which is dangerous -- even if the caller then fixes up permissions
> afterwards, it exposes a window in which an attacker can open the file.
