This is quite a common feature request / support request on the various stackexchange sites - https://superuser.com/questions/332284/in-sftp- how-to-set-the-default-permission-for-all-files-in-a-folder You will see that someone has answered "add -m" there which is indeed the simplest answer by a distance but unfortunately it's a non standard patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openssh/blob/f34/f/openssh-6.7p1 -sftp-force-permission.patch This I think should supersede #563216 because they have been shipping this in production presumably since at least 2015 (I see it in fedora 22 branch), so it is a known stable patch compared to the one suggested there. ** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1922130 Title: Request addition of Fedora / Redhat "sftp-force-permissions" patch Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Fedora / Redhat ships openssh with a patch which adds "-m force permission" flag to sftp-server.
