Subject: [cobalt-security] chkrootkit output question

The only strange message I get on all of our RaQ's from daily chkrootkit is:

Searching for anomalies in shell history files... /usr/bin/find: //proc/6/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/7/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/8/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/9/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/10/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/6/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/7/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/8/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/9/fd: Permission denied

/usr/bin/find: //proc/10/fd: Permission denied

nothing found

Is this something to be concerned about? Wonder why permission is denied?

 

Thanks,

Gary
