Patch or Workaround : chmod 755 /opt/sapdb/depend*/pgm/dbmsrv and /opt/sapdb/depend*/pgm/lserver SAP made it clear that normal users should not have local access to the SAP server when I pointed out the last security issue. The same logic applys here however this does not lessen the result of this problem.
