Fix Recommendation

Configure the library files and their respective parent directories to be protected from unauthorized access. Run the following command:

$ sudo find /lib /usr/lib /lib64 ! -user root -type d -exec chown root '{}' \;

Check Contents

Verify the system-wide shared library directories "/lib", "/lib64", and "/usr/lib" are owned by root with the following command:

$ sudo find /lib /usr/lib /lib64 ! -user root -type d -exec stat -c "%n %U" '{}' \;

If any system-wide library directory is returned, this is a finding.
