Check Text ( C-27710r1_chk )
Examine /etc/syslog.conf and determine the log file(s) receiving logs for mail.crit, mail.debug, mail.*, or *.crit. Check the permissions on these log files. # ls -lL [log file] If the permissions include a "+", the file has an extended ACL and this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-23940r1_fix)
Remove the extended ACL from the file. # getfacl [log file] Remove each ACE returned. # setfacl -d [ACE] [log file]
