Fix Recommendation

If operational/application requirements specify different file permissions, obtain ISSM risk acceptance and set permissions according to risk acceptance.

Run the following command on the Tomcat server:

sudo find $CATALINA_BASE/conf -follow -maxdepth 0 -type d -print0 | sudo xargs chmod 750 $CATALINA_BASE/conf

Check Contents

Access the Tomcat server from the command line and execute the following OS command:

sudo find $CATALINA_BASE/conf -follow -maxdepth 0 -type d \( \! -perm 750 \) -ls

If ISSM risk acceptance specifies deviation from requirement based on operational/application needs, this is not a finding if the permissions are set in accordance with the risk acceptance.

If no folders are displayed, this is not a finding.

If results indicate the $CATALINA_BASE/conf folder permissions are not set to 750, this is a finding.
