Fixes https://github.com/NASA-PDS/doi-service/security/code-scanning/58
To fix the problem, we need to change the file permissions to be more restrictive. Specifically, we should set the permissions so that only the owner can read and write the file, and no one else can access it. This can be achieved by changing the mode in the
os.chmod
function from0o0664
to0o0600
