🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: The snapshot directory was being created using the standard fs::create_dir_all function, which relies on the system's default umask (often 0755 or 022). This could potentially expose sensitive snapshot data or configuration to other users on the system if they have access to the data directory.
🎯 Impact: If a malicious local user gains access to the snapshot directory created with overly permissive permissions, they could potentially read sensitive wallet snapshot data.
πŸ”§ Fix: Replaced fs::create_dir_all with crate::paths::create_secure_dir_all to enforce strict permissions (e.g., 0700 on Unix systems) when creating the snapshot directory, following defense-in-depth security best practices.
βœ… Verification: Verified by checking that src/commands/snapshot.rs uses the create_secure_dir_all helper function. Ran cargo test and cargo clippy to ensure no regressions.

Replaced `fs::create_dir_all` with `crate::paths::create_secure_dir_all` in `src/commands/snapshot.rs` to ensure the snapshot directory is created with secure default permissions (0o700) instead of relying on the system's default umask.
