Package: coreutils Version: 6.10-6 Severity: normal
I got the shock of my life when I found that even with two separae users logged under two virtual terminals (X.org, KDE 4, from experimental), users does NOT report ANY users logged in on the system. This is when running "users" command from konsole. So, I go to tty1, log in user1, user2 from tty2, user3 from tty3, etc. and userX from X. I try running the "users" command from both X and each tty separately, and find that "users" reports all users logged in from ttys; but not those loggedin on X. Is there any possibility that the system r00ted? There is nothing suspicious so far; but reason I ran users was that the system is too swappy with 2 users on X; but I have only 512 megs of RAM. And I run firehol with the default "client-all.conf" file in /etc/firehol/firehol.conf. So, not easy to get cracked; unless something smart has happend. And I am on a dynamic IP; but the system is connected most of time. I am no security expert, so any questions to rule out /confirm a cracked system is welcome. PS:- Is there is a security issue here?
