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 f -print0 | sudo xargs chmod 640 $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 f \( \! -perm 640 \) -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 files are displayed, this is not a finding.

If results indicate any of the file permissions contained in the $CATALINA_BASE/conf folder are not set to 640, this is a finding.
