# Incorrect exit code during recursive operations

A flaw in the ChownExecutor used by uutils coreutils chown and chgrp
causes the utilities to return an incorrect exit code during recursive
operations. The final exit code is determined only by the last file
processed. If the last operation succeeds, the command returns 0 even
if earlier ownership or group changes failed due to permission errors.

This can lead to security misconfigurations where administrative
scripts incorrectly assume that ownership has been successfully
transferred across a directory tree.
