The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects.
The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and
pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field.
We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers
and users.

As mitigation for CVE-2020-1945 Apache Ant 1.10.8 changed the permissions of temporary files it created so that only the current user was allowed to access them. Unfortunately the fixcrlf task deleted the temporary file and created a new one without said protection, effectively nullifying the effort. This would still allow an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process.
