Check the mode of library files.
Procedure:
# DIRS="/usr/lib /lib /usr/lib64 /lib64";for DIR in $DIRS;do find $DIR -type f -perm +022 -exec stat -c %a:%n {} \;;done
This will return the octal permissions and name of all group or world writable files.
If any file listed is world or group writable (either or both of the 2 lowest order digits contain a 2, 3 or 6), this is a finding.
Change the mode of library files to 0755 or less permissive.
Procedure (example):
# chmod go-w </path/to/library-file>
Note: Library files should have an extension of ".a" or a ".so" extension, possibly followed by a version number.
