Verify and Correct File Permissions with RPM
The RPM package management system can check file access
permissions of installed software packages, including many that are
important to system security.
After locating a file with incorrect permissions, run the following command to determine which package owns it:
'$ rpm -qf FILENAME'
Next, run the following command to reset its permissions to
the correct values:
'$ sudo rpm --setperms PACKAGENAME'
Parameter:
Technical Mechanism:
Permissions on system binaries and configuration files that are too generous
could allow an unauthorized user to gain privileges that they should not have.
The permissions set by the vendor should be maintained. Any deviations from
this baseline should be investigated.
