| Description | ||||
| If TOSS 5 allowed any user to make changes to software libraries, then those changes might be implemented without undergoing the appropriate testing and approvals that are part of a robust change management process. This requirement applies to TOSS 5 with software libraries that are accessible and configurable, as in the case of interpreted languages. Software libraries also include privileged programs that execute with escalated privileges. | ||||

Verify the systemwide shared library files contained in the following directories have mode "755" or less permissive with the following command:
$ sudo find -L /lib /lib64 /usr/lib /usr/lib64 -perm /022 -type f -exec ls -l {} \;
If any systemwide shared library file is found to be group-writable or world-writable, this is a finding.
