Description

To properly set the group owner of /var/log/localmessages*, run the command:

$ sudo chgrp adm /var/log/localmessages*

or

$ sudo chgrp root /var/log/localmessages*

Rationale

The /var/log/localmessages* file contains log messages from certain boot scripts, including the DHCP client, and should only be accessed by authorized personnel.

Remediation

Shell script

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

#!/bin/bash

if getent group "adm" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  newgroup="adm"
elif getent group "root" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  newgroup="root"
fi
if [[ -z ${newgroup} ]]; then
  echo "adm and root is not a defined group on the system"
  exit 1
fi

find -L /var/log/ -maxdepth 1 -type f  ! -group adm ! -group root -regextype posix-extended -regex '.*localmessages.*' -exec chgrp -L $newgroup {} \;

Ansible playbook

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