Title:
  cp preserves mode with --no-preserve=mode

Status in The Gnu Core Utilities:
  New
Status in “coreutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “coreutils” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: coreutils

  
  Example: copying files from CD/vfat/etc. into the filesystem.

  The files (all) will keep their executable bit and stay read only.

  Even with the --no-preserver=mode option the current umask is ignored
  (or only used in a substracting way when creating the new copy),
  instead of using the umask for newly created files.
