             Summary: Configurable Log File Permissions
                 Key: LOG4J2-1699
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1699
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Question
          Components: Appenders
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Demetrios Dimatos
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 2.8


We would like to hear the communities thoughts on being able to configure the 
permissions log files are created with. We don't want to rely on UMASK because 
we have managed services who's process should generate logs with a 644 yet 
deployed applications by users should default to a 640 because the logs may 
contain sensitive information.

We will make the modification and set this in the properties file. Now we are 
looking to see what the community position would be on accepting such a patch, 
we don't want to be patching our own distribution indefinitely. 

I searched all the JIRAs and was not able to find any matching requirements 
recently. All I could find was something dated in 2006:
