[PATCH 1/1] sandbox: use sane access rights for files

When writing an executable, allowing other users to modify it introduces
a security issue.
Generally we should avoid giving other users write access to our files by
default.
Replace chmod(777) by chmod(755) and chmod(644).
Fixes: 47f5fcfb4169 ("sandbox: Add os_jump_to_image() to run another executable")
Fixes: d9165153caea ("sandbox: add flags for open() call")
Fixes: 5c2859cdc302 ("sandbox: Allow reading/writing of RAM buffer")
