Description

Bug report

Describe your environment

  • Device: M5 Macbook Air
  • OS name and version: macOS Tahoe 26.5.2
  • IVPN app version: 3.15.13

Describe the problem

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Set umask on macOS with sudo launchctl config user umask 077
  2. Reboot the Mac to make sure it applies
  3. Install any older version of IVPN
  4. Perform an update when prompted

Observed Results:

/Applications/IVPN will only be owned by root and the normal user will not see it.

Expected Results:

IVPN should ignore the umask or fix the permission after the app has updated. Other apps seem to ignore the umask with their self update just fine.
