Bug #17994: Symbolic file modes when creating directories: Wrong permissions
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17994
Author: Daniel Grafe
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal

Category:
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.19
Keywords:
Branch:
Using symbolic modes when creating directories gives an additional sticky bit
on the directory:
testcase:
<pre>
file { "/tmp/testdir":
ensure => directory,
mode => "u=rwx,go=x"
}
</pre>
Result:
<pre>
> rm -rf /tmp/testdir/
> puppet /tmp/symbolic_mode_test.pp
warning: Implicit invocation of 'puppet apply' by passing files (or flags)
directly
to 'puppet' is deprecated, and will be removed in the 2.8 series. Please
invoke 'puppet apply' directly in the future.
notice: /Stage[main]//File[/tmp/testdir]/ensure: created
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.50 seconds
> ls -la /tmp/ | grep testdir
drwx-----T 2 root root 4096 6. Dez 09:36 testdir
</pre>
The method for converting symbolic file modes to octals is expecting an octal
as second parameter. But when creating directories a numeric with base 10 is
passed. Prefixing this value with a '0' specifying an octal would fix the bug.
In lib/puppet/type/file/ensure.pp:
<pre>
Dir.mkdir(@resource[:path], symbolic_mode_to_int(mode, 755, true))
^
|- changing to 0755
will fix the problem
</pre>
I'm filing this against 2.7.19. But since the relevant code has not been
changed the reported bug should also be reproducable on 3.x
