Discussion

The system's boot loader configuration files are critical to the integrity of the system and must be protected. Unauthorized modifications resulting from improper group ownership may compromise the boot loader configuration.

Check Content

Check the group ownership of the file.
# ls -lLd /etc/zipl.conf
If the group-owner of the file is not root, bin, sys, or system this is a finding.

Fix Text

Change the group ownership of the file.
# chgrp root /etc/zipl.conf
