description: | |
11 |
|
|
Using rkhunter on a Mageia 2 or 3 system, the gaskit rootkit was erroneously |
12 |
|
|
detected as it triggered on the presence of the directory /dev/dev which is |
13 |
|
|
commonly available on Mageia systems. |
14 |
|
|
|
15 |
|
|
Furthermore, the whitelisting of a file which no longer is present on |
16 |
|
|
Mageia 3 systems would prevent rkhunter from starting properly. Other files |
17 |
|
|
which should have been whitelisted were missing, resulting in warnings |
18 |
|
|
appearing. |

|
This update addresses these issues. rkhunter users are advised to install |
21 |
|
|
the updated package. |
