Fix Recommendation

Configure TOSS 5 to define default permissions for all authenticated users using the c shell.

Add or edit the lines for the "umask" parameter in the "/etc/csh.cshrc" file to "077":

umask 077

Check Contents

Verify the "umask" setting is configured correctly in the "/etc/csh.cshrc" file using the following command:

Note: If the value of the "umask" parameter is set to "000" "/etc/csh.cshrc" file, the severity is raised to a CAT I.

$ grep umask /etc/csh.cshrc

umask 077
umask 077

If the value for the "umask" parameter is not "077", or the "umask" parameter is missing or is commented out, this is a finding.
