Previously the file permissions for the debug log file were not explicitly set. Instead it was implicitly relying on a secure umask, which in most cases would result in a file that is world-readable. This is a violation of good practices, since not very user of a file should have access to sensitive information that might be contained in the debug log file. This commit will explicitly set sane default file permissions in case the file is newly created. Unfortunately the fopen(3) function does not provide such a facility, so the approach needs to be changed in the following way: 1.) The file descriptor needs to be created manually using the open(3) function with the correct flags and the desired mode set. 2.) fdopen(3) can then be used on the file descriptor to associate a file stream with it. Note: This modification will not change the file permissions of any already existing debug log files, and only applies to newly created ones.
