chown root:root ndb_mgm chmod ndb_mgm 700

Should make access only to root.

That does not fix the problem. A malicious user can run his own version of ndb_mgm.

Also, it seems that there is no check on the source IP address of the ndb_mgm client. I've just installed the ndb_mgm client on a box outside the cluster, and I can connect to the management server and bring down the cluster as a regular user.
