Fix Recommendation

Configure the system library files to be protected from unauthorized access. Run the following command:

# sudo find /lib /usr/lib /lib64 ! -group root -type f -exec chgrp root '{}' \;

Check Contents

Check that the system-wide library files are group-owned by root with the following command:

# sudo find /lib /usr/lib /lib64 ! -group root -type f -exec stat -c "%n %G" '{}' \;
