AIX7-00-003039 - AIX run control scripts executable search paths must contain only absolute paths.
Information
The executable search path (typically the PATH environment variable) contains a list of directories for the shell to search to find executables. If this path includes the current working directory or other relative paths, executables in these directories may be executed instead of system commands.NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.
Solution
Edit the run control script and remove the relative path entry from the executable search path variable.See Also
