Issue

In RHEL 7.1, the setuid permission bit on binaries provided by rsh package are different than the same binaries provided by the same package in RHEL 6.7.

RHEL6.7
Package: rsh-0.17-64.el6.x86_64.rpm
Permissions seen: [setuid set]
# ls -l usr/bin/
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 20888 2014-05-26 06:39 rcp
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17304 2014-05-26 06:39 rexec
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 15640 2014-05-26 06:39 rlogin
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 11408 2014-05-26 06:39 rsh

RHEL7.1
Package: rsh-0.17-76.el7.x86_64.rpm
Permissions seen: [setuid unset]
# ls -l usr/bin/
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 23904 2014-08-18 06:14 rcp
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 19728 2014-08-18 06:14 rexec
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 19824 2014-08-18 06:14 rlogin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15560 2014-08-18 06:14 rsh

What should be done for applications that rely on the binaries having the setuid permissions bit available on them?
