Information
The nodev mount option specifies that the filesystem cannot contain special devices.
Rationale:
Since the /var/log filesystem is not intended to support devices, set this option to ensure that users cannot create a block or character special devices in /var/log.
Solution
IF the /var/log partition exists, edit the /etc/fstab file and add nodev to the fourth field (mounting options) for the /var/log partition.
Example:
<device> /var/log <fstype> defaults,rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime 0 0
Run the following command to remount /var/log with the configured options:
# mount -o remount /var/log
