Discussion

Excessive permissions could endanger the security of the Samba configuration file and, ultimately, the system and network.

Check Content

Check the permissions of the Samba configuration file.
# ls -lL /etc/samba/smb.conf
If the permissions include a '+', the file has an extended ACL. If the file has an extended ACL and it has not been documented with the IAO, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Remove the extended ACL from the file.
# setfacl --remove-all /etc/samba/smb.conf
