Fix Recommendation

To configure the correct UMASK setting run the following command:

# sed -i "/^[^#]*UMASK/ c\UMASK 077" /etc/login.defs

Check Contents

Check for the configured "umask" value in "login.defs" with the following command:

# grep UMASK /etc/login.defs

If the default "umask" is not "077", this a finding.

Note: If the default umask is "000" or allows for the creation of world-writable files this becomes a Severity Code I finding.
