Changes to $CATALINA_BASE/conf/ folder must be logged.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The $CATALINA_BASE/conf folder contains configuration files for the Tomcat Catalina server. To provide forensic evidence in the event of file tampering, changes to contents in this folder must be logged. For Linux OS flavors other than Ubuntu, use the relevant OS commands. This can be done on the Ubuntu OS via the auditctl command. Using the -p wa flag set the permissions flag for a file system watch and logs file attribute and content change events into syslog.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
