Security Fix
There was a problem in the 5.2.0 release build that caused new installations to have file permissions set incorrectly. All files and folders were given permissions of 777, which is too open. The correct settings should be 755 for folders and 644 for files. This issue could make the site less secure on certain hosting setups.
If you updated an existing Joomla site to version 5.2.0, this issue does not affect you because the update process automatically applies the correct permissions. For new sites installed using the 5.2.0 package, this Joomla 5.2.2 update will fix the permission issue.
