I'm also getting this: Warning: Hidden file found: /dev/.blkid.tab: ASCII text Warning: Hidden file found: /dev/.blkid.tab.old: ASCII text
That's a regression of bug #86153. And yes, rkhunter requires extensive manual installation. Which is a Good Thing IMHO. Without that, an admin won't be able to distinguish false positives from genuine problems. However, the commented-out entries in the conf file should also explain under which circumstances leaving them deactivated will give false positives. E.g. I have no idea which process is generating /dev/.blkid.tab - it contains UUIDs of the block devices, and I see little harm in having these files, but I'd like to be able to check what these files are supposed to contain. (Googling for /dev/.blkid.tab give either too many or too few hits, depending on what else you enter.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219840 Title: rkhunter reports hidden directories under /dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rkhunter/+bug/219840/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
