Lars Gustäbel added the comment: This was fixed in the trunk in r53526 about a year ago following issue1507247. I did not backport it to 2.5 at that time, because it would have changed existing behaviour. If there are no objections I could do this now.
The os.mkdir() call in TarFile.makedir() uses the default mode, but the real mode from the TarInfo object is applied two instructions later in TarFile._extract_member(). I have nothing against using 0700 in TarFile.makedir(). The os.makedirs() call in _extract_member() (trunk) is fine. It creates missing directories that are not part of the archive with default permissions, that is mode 0777 with the current umask masked out. I attached a patchset against the release25-maint branch and the trunk that is supposed to fix the issue and harmonizes the code between the two versions.
