Description

To properly set the group owner of /etc/shells, run the command:

$ sudo chgrp root /etc/shells

Rationale

The /etc/shells file contains the list of full pathnames to shells on the system. Since this file is used by many system programs this file should be protected.

Remediation

Shell script

The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.

#!/bin/bash

chgrp 0 /etc/shells

Ansible playbook

The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
