[issue24558] shutil.copytree with symlinks=True opens vulnerabilities

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

I don't understand your workaround (how is that different from just using the default value of symlinks?)

It sounds like what you are reporting is that copystat is incorrectly setting permissions on a file a symlink points to instead of on the symlink itself (in whatever sense the latter is even meaningful)?
