The umask controls the default access mode assigned to newly created files. An umask of 0077 limits new files to mode 0700 or less permissive. The leading zero digit represents an unsigned octal integer. This requirement applies to the globally configured system and user account defaults for all sessions initiated via PAM.
For Trusted Mode: Check the attribute setting. # grep UMASK /etc/default/security If UMASK is not set to 0077, this is a finding. For SMSE: Check the attribute setting. # grep UMASK /etc/default/security /var/adm/userdb/* If UMASK is not set to 0077, this is a finding.
For Trusted Mode: Use the SAM/SMH interface (/etc/default/security file) to update attribute. See the below example: UMASK=0077 For SMSE: Note: There may be additional package/bundle updates that must be installed to support attributes in the /etc/default/security file. Use the SAM/SMH interface (/etc/default/security file) and/or the userdbset command (/var/adm/userdb/* files) to update attribute. See the below example: UMASK=0077 Note: Never use a text editor to modify any /var/adm/userdb database file. The database contains checksums and other binary data, and editors (vi included) do not follow the file locking conventions that are used to control access to the database. If manually editing the /etc/default/security file, save any change(s) before exiting the editor.
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.
