What do you mean suddenly? Setting umask will not prevent files from being 600, if that's what the application decided. umask works by subtracting permissions.

I think Weblogic will automatically protect some of its temporary files and/or files that contain Weblogic admin passwords to 600.

You're supposed to use the Weblogic admin console to manage Weblogic and let it handle the actual files.

At least some versions of Weblogic may have a weblogic.policy file, which apparently can be used to override the default protections... if you *really* know what you're doing.
