| Summary | 0010165: Permissions of /etc in rockylinux/rockylinux:9 container images can be too wide for some services | ||||
| Description | Permissions of directory /etc in rockylinux/rockylinux:9 container images are 775: drwxrwxr-x. 1 root root 41 Aug 1 10:28 /etc While on a GenericCloud 9.6 VM image, permissions are 755: drwxr-xr-x. 90 root root 8192 Aug 1 09:30 /etc While not generally causing any security issues because the root group generally only includes the root user, it can cause issues with some services if they check the permissions. For example, the MUNGE service [1] fails to start: munged: Error: Keyfile is insecure: group-writable permissions without sticky bit set on "/etc" [1] https://dun.github.io/munge | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | sudo podman run --rm -it rockylinux/rockylinux:9 ls -dl /etc | ||||
