Information
You should verify that the docker.service file permissions are either set to 644 or to a more restrictive value.
Rationale:
The docker.service file contains sensitive parameters that may alter the behavior of the Docker daemon. It should therefore not be writable by any other user other than root in order to ensure that it can not be modified by less privileged users.
Impact:
None.
Solution
Step 1: Find out the file location:
systemctl show -p FragmentPath docker.service
Step 2: If the file does not exist, this recommendation is not applicable. If the file exists, execute the command below including the correct file path to set the file permissions to 644.
For example,
chmod 644 /usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service
Default Value:
This file may not be present on the system. In that case, this recommendation is not applicable. By default, if the file is present, the file permissions are correctly set to 644.
