> Currently, we implement flush like:
> {code:java}
> //  public void flush() throws IOException {
>     super.flush();
>     if (LOG.isDebugEnabled()) {
>       LOG.debug("Resetting permissions to '" + permissions + "'");
>     }
>     if (!Shell.WINDOWS) {
>       Files.setPosixFilePermissions(Paths.get(file.getCanonicalPath()),
>           permissions);
>     } else {
>       // FsPermission expects a 10-character string because of the leading
>       // directory indicator, i.e. "drwx------". The JDK toString method 
> returns
>       // a 9-character string, so prepend a leading character.
>       FsPermission fsPermission = FsPermission.valueOf(
>           "-" + PosixFilePermissions.toString(permissions));
>       FileUtil.setPermission(file, fsPermission);
>     }
>   } {code}
> we wirite the Credential first, then set permission.
> The correct order is setPermission first, then write Credential .
> Otherswise, we may leak Credential . For example, the origin perms of file is 
> 755(default on linux),  when the Credential  is flushed, Credential can be 
> leaked when 
>  
> 1)between flush and setPermission,  others have a chance to access the file.
> 2)  CredentialShell(or the machine node )  crash between flush and 
> setPermission,   the file permission is 755 for ever before we run the 
> CredentialShell again.
