Vulnerability discussion

Unauthorized access could destroy the integrity of the library files.

Check content

Check the mode of library files. Procedure: # ls -lLR /usr/lib /lib /usr/sfw/lib If any of the library files have a mode more permissive than 0755, this is a finding.

Fix text

Change the mode of library files to 0755 or less permissive. Procedure (example): # chmod 0755 /path/to/library-file NOTE: Library files should have an extension of .a or .so, possibly followed by a version number.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
