Vulnerability discussion

Restricting permission on daemons will protect them from unauthorized modification and possible system compromise.

Check content

Check the mode of network services daemons. # ls -lLa /usr/lbin If the mode of a network services daemon is more permissive than 0755, this is a finding. NOTE: Network daemons that may not reside in these directories (such as httpd or sshd) must also be checked for the correct permissions.

Fix text

Change the mode of the network services daemon. # chmod 0755 /

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.
