As part of a compliance (NERC/CIP) request, I must list all files on our RSA boxes (SUSE Linux/AM 8.2 P5) that is capable of executing code. I am waiting for an update, but this may include scripts as well. Do you have a listing somewhere with the filenames or a way I can retrieve that?

Correct Answer

List all files on the box that have an execute bit set

 

as root

 

find . / -type f -executable

 

and/or

 

find . / -type f -perm +111 -print

 

-executable

tests that the file can be executed by the current user

 

-perm +111 just tests if any execute permissions are set.
