The
os.WriteFile
function is used in SPIRE to write to a file with specific permission bits. This works well in Unix platforms but it doesn't allow to specify a specific security descriptor on Windows.This PR adds two new functions to our
diskutil
package:WritePrivateFile
andWritePubliclyReadableFile
. Those functions have os-specific implementations that respect the intended permissions in each platform.Fixes part of #3189.
