Abstract
The embedded WebSphere Application Server in Identity Insight was created with elevated permissions for all system users, even those outside of the installation group.
Content
The WebSphere install script - which is called by the Identity Insight Installer- does some 'chmod' commands which open up the ewas directory to permissions by "other" users on UNIX platforms.
To remove the elevated permissions: |
chmod -R o-w .
find . -type f -exec chmod a-x {} \;
find . -type f -name '*.sh' -exec chmod u+x {} \;
chmod -R a+x java/bin/
chmod -R a+x java/jre/bin/
