I find that some applications want to check /proc/cpuinfo but don't have access
This is on my server running Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS, the permissions are:
-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 2 14:35 /proc/cpuinfo
My desktop is also running Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS but the permissions are different and less restrictive:
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 2 15:37 /proc/cpuinfo
Which one is correct? Are they restrictive on my server for a reason? Can I update my server's permissions to be the same as my desktop or is that dangerous?
