Information

All SUSE operating system files and directories must have a valid group owner.

GROUP ID: V-235029
RULE ID: SV-235029r991589

Files without a valid group owner may be unintentionally inherited if a group is assigned the same Group Identifier (GID) as the GID of the files without a valid group owner.

Solution

Either remove all files and directories from the SUSE operating system that do not have a valid group, or assign a valid group to all files and directories on the system with the "chgrp" command:

sudo chgrp <group> <file>
