For example change: ubuntu:x:1000:1000:Ubuntu:/home/ubuntu:/bin/bash to: ubuntu:x:1000:1000:Ubuntu,umask=007:/home/ubuntu:/bin/bash You may need to reboot for your X session to pick up the change. Then, from the graphical desktop, open a terminal and run: $ gnome-terminal -e sh in the opened terminal, run: $ umask the number shown should be 0007, as set in the passwd file [regression potential] any regression would likely result in an incorrect umask for the user whose passwd entry is modified. [scope] this is needed only for b this is fixed in systemd upstream by commit 5e37d1930b41b24c077ce37c6db0e36c745106c7 which was first included in v246, so this is fixed in g and later. This commit was also picked up by Debian and included in the v245 release for focal, so this is fixed in focal already. [original description] In order to set the default umask of my users to 027 or 007, I followed the instructions provided in 'man pam_umask' : In the 'gecos' field of '/etc/passwd', I have inserted 'umask=027' or 'umask=007' (for myself). Then, MOST graphical applications systematically run with the correct umask. In particular, when I press Alt-F2, run 'xterm sh' and type 'umask', it systematically displays 0007. But when I press Alt-F2, run 'gnome-terminal -e sh' and type 'umask', it systematically displays 0022. That is BAD, and is a security issue. Workaround : Inside the newly created '/etc/profile.d/umask.sh', and in each '~/.bashrc', add following content : UMASK="$(grep -o "^$USER:.*,umask=0[0-7]*" /etc/passwd)" if [ "$UMASK" ]; then umask "${UMASK#$USER:*,umask=}" fi In fact, 'gnome-terminal' MUST NOT force umask=022, but keep umask unchanged. Thank you in advance for a quick correction.
