This release of CloudForms corrects an issue invoked when running pg_upgrade by which attackers could read or modify the output of `pg_dumpall -g` in the current working directory. With this release, any attack is rendered infeasible as the directory mode blocks an intruder from searching the current working directory, and the prevailing umask prevents attackers from opening the file.
