>Description:
Default permissions on certain system configuration files in the /etc hierarchy are, in my opinion, too weak. Users have no need to access these files which, after all, contain configuration information that may be used against the system. The files are:
ssh/sshd_config
crontab
exports
ftpusers
ipf.rules
ipnat.rules
ipsec.conf (not 100% sure about this one)
newsyslog.conf
nsmb.conf
periodic.conf
syslog.conf
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
'chmod 600' the said files.
