Root /home Scanning

The /home directory is world readable. This means that anyone can see which files and directories exist in the /home directory. This is not very severe but can make it a little easier for hackers to access things they shouldn't. This is also simple to lock down by running this command: chmod o-r /home
Example 1: Anyone can see everyone's home directories by running this:
ls -al /home/.
Example 2: This might run for a while and waste CPU:
find /home/*/public_html -print
