Fedora Security :: Rkhunter Error - Can't Open File
Jun 4, 2009
why I can't open this file.
[root@localhost fedora]# gedit /etc/var/log/rkhunter/rkhunter.log No protocol specified (gedit:24869): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.0 [root@localhost fedora]# gedit /var/log/rkhunter/rkhunter.log No protocol specified
There is absolutely no reason why it can't be opened. I opened it just fine earlier and now it won't open up for inspection.

i get this warning from selinux :
"SELinux is preventing /bin/mailx from append access on the file /var/lib/rkhunter/rkhcronlog.OmRFCZOynG."
I tried to fix it by "# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/lib/rkhunter/rkhcronlog.OmRFCZOynG" as suggested by SELinux but it comes back with another warning, but with a different /rkhcronlog.xxxxxxxxx...
i think its just a way of rkhunter logging issue -. attached here is the actual error message by selinux.

I had been receiving a rkhunter warning on my Fedora 14 server for quite some time now. Attempts to fix the error via information from Google searches have failed. I decided to have a look at bugzilla and what do you know, a fix. The warning:
Quote:
[03:29:08] Warning: The SSH and rkhunter configuration options should be the same:
Warning: The SSH and rkhunter configuration options should be the same:
The fix, according to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=596775 is to change
PHP Code:
ALLOW_SSH_PROT_V1=2
to
PHP Code:
ALLOW_SSH_PROT_V1=0
I made the change and ran rkhunter again. No more error. I know everyone was wondering about this.

You should be running a firewall. I would also periodically check for rootkits with rkhunter and chkrootkit. Antivirus is usually optional, but it depends on your network ... if you have Window$ machines, do use clamav or something.Hope I'm not distorting the thread but just ran rkhunter and got a lot of red warnings, especially worrying seems:

According to the rkhunter home page, rkhunter is tested on Slackware up to version 10.1. Does this mean it is not useful on Slackware 13.1?

What the best method is for checking for rootkits? I have heard that it is best not to install and run these programs on the distro itself. Would it be possible to install them on another distro/partition and then use them to check for rootkits on my main partition/distro (Ubuntu)?

I have just been checking one of my machines with rkhunter and got the following result:
Code:
[17:50:08] Warning: Checking for possible rootkit strings [ Warning ]

[17:50:09] Found string 'hdparm' in file '/etc/init.d/bootlogd'. Possible rootkit: Xzibit Rootkit
Using a well known search engine shows that others have come across this before: [URL] I have installed the current version of rkhunter from Debian's Unstable repo,but i still have the same result as above. I now check the rkhunter wiki,which mentions the same problem: [URL]

Is this a false positive from rkhunter?
/usr/bin/curl [ Warning ]
/usr/bin/ldd [ Warning ]
Chkrootkit came back ok. Running ClamAV and will only add that here if it finds anything. I just neve remember seeing these before. This is in Ubuntu 10.10

Last night I received the classic rkhunter's email with several warnings inside:
Quote:
Warning:
Warning:
Warning:
and so on..
Why rkhunter isn't able to calculate the hash of those files and compare it with the stored one?
Other strange thing: for the "good" file, the hash is often different!
For example, in the last rkhunter.log, /bin/awk is "good".
But:

So, if the sha1sum is different, why rkhunter tell me that awk is secure?

I've got rkhunter installed and regularly do scans immediately before & after updates & if I get warnings about 'file property updates' after the update I use 'rkhunter --propupd' to give me a clean run.I'm about to setup a ubuntu computer for my nan, I want to enable automatic security updates so she doesn't have to do anything to keep her system secure. I was planning on running rkhunter when I go to her house (about once a month) and check the dates in the resulting rkhunter.log warnings with those in the var/log/apt/history.log to see if legitimate updates caused any rkhunter warnings. I've noticed though that the 'Current file modifiation time:' in the rkhunter.log warnings are incorrect.
My system seems to be about 15 days behind the actual date, I've now run rkhunter --propupd so I have no warnings but got this one off another forum post to show what I mean:
Current file modification time: 1283341157 (01-Sep-2010 06:39:17)
I believe that the '1283341157' is the time in some strange format and the date in brackets is what rkhunter thinks it might be in human format.
1) How to interpret the 'strange date format' (1283341157 in the line above)?
2) If there's a way of configuring the date in rkhunter so that they're correct in rkhunter.log?
3) If there's a better way of keeping her system up-to-date & secure, it's her first computer & she's 86 so I think setting up automatic security updates is the way to go, it'll be one less thing to overwhelm her!

Let's say you have a host with some kind of locally installed root kit detector/scanner.
If someone managed to get root access to that box. Wouldn't the first thing to do, before installing a root kit, be to remove any kind root kit detector?

I have a server, running Centos 5.5. It runs daily rkhunter and logwatch. From both I get a daily mail.
I have a desktop computer, running Fedora 13 (almost 14...). It runs also a daily rkhunter and logwatch. But I get ONE mail from logwatch, which contains the result of rkhunter.
On the server, I want also only mail from logwatch, containing the rkhunter results. But so far, no luck.
How can I get the rkhunter results in the logwatch mail on my Centos server?

Something really nasty happened to my Arch Linux just now and I don't know why. I was switching through Xfwm4 themes when suddenly Kate crashed and brought down X with it. I started X back up, and Xfwm got hung up, I had to switch to another VT and run "killall X". I tried replacing xfwm4 with pekwm (but still with xfce4-panel) in .xinitrc, same thing. I deleted all my Xfce config files and tried again. The mouse didn't even move. The keyboard didn't work, not even the keyboard light would come on and I couldn't switch to another VT. I was forced to use the Reset button and hope it wouldn't ruin my hard drive.
It booted up fine, I purged all xfce4-related packages just in case while still in CLI mode, and I ran "xinit /usr/bin/pekwm" and I got into a working GUI. I closed a window and X froze again! The window's close button just stayed presses after I let go of it! I killed X from another VT. So I installed and ran "rkhunter" form AUR (I wonder why they don't have it in the arch repos, it's so much better that chkrootkit) and it warned that I might have Adore Rootkit. What should I do? If it helps, I recently installed a few packages from the Arch Linux AUR, including "ooc-git", "ooc-gtksourceview-git", "libpng12", and "virtualbox_bin".

You may know the Humble Indie Pack 2, which is a set of crossplatform indie video games. There's one game in the bundle that doesn't offer a 64bit build and therefore it fails to load. It's called Braid and that's what you get when you try to run it: $ ./braid ./braid: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Of course the 64bit libs for OpenGL and the propitiatory nvidia drivers are installed, but the game asks for the 32bit ones, at least to my understanding. I do know that why can install 32bit libraries on a 64 bit linux system (we do that for the sake of crappy Adobe Flash), but I don't know where to find these libs (searching the repo with keywords like .i586 or ia32 led me nowhere).

Like Jackp27, I am reacting to a transient warning from rkhunter, indicating a possible LKM trojan, which may or may not be a false positive. Running chkrootkit and rkhunter repeatedly, including older versions running under live CDs like INSERT, indicated nothing wrong, but two runs of rkhunter running under the possibly compromised system itself did seem to suggest rkhunter thought it might have found elements of trojan code in RAM.
Like Jackp27, I can't give details right now because I do not currently have access to my logs, but I did find one webpage (can't give link because I do not currently have access to my detailed notes) suggesting that rkhunter may have thought it found a signature of the adore trojan in RAM by looking at /proc/kallsymms which is not a file I ordinary look at. I did look at it very closely yesterday, repeatedly, and it seems to be mostly empty, but occasionaly seems to contain what might be a sequence of calls to various kernel modules--- right now I only recall that some had the form ??_guest_? and that x_tables might be involved.
Can anyone give me a rough indication of what /proc/kallsymms is supposed to do, whether it should normally be empty, and when it is not, what kind of lines are supposed to show up in that "file" when I cat it? I also saw something about ?_logdrop? which may have had something to do with with rotating logs (I rebooted several times) rather than a trojan keylogger. But maybe some trojans rotate logs to try to hide their presence?
I know I am not giving enough information--- I hope to come back later with more details after I have managed to access my logs and notes, so feel free to say what kind of details would be most helpful in helping me decide whether or not this was a false positive.

I get an error when running slapt-get. The error is: "slapt-get: error while loading shared libraries: libsas.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
I've booted the Slackware disk # 1 and unchecked everything except the libraries category and installed them. I rebooted and it still says this. I get this same error before I put the disk in and rebooted to install ALL libraries. I really need help. BTW, I can't load KDE.I found a pkg manager already installed called "slackpkg". But I really need help on this library issue!! I uninstalled it (slapt-get) anyway, so forget that!
