1 Hello
2
3 I was performing a routine security audit using:
4
5 find / -user root -perm -4000 -print
6
7 which found these peculiar files:
8
9 /usr/athena/bin/su
10 /usr/athena/bin/otp
11 /usr/athena/bin/rcp
12 /usr/athena/bin/rsh
13 /usr/athena/bin/rlogin
14
15
16 upon greater inspection this is most troubling:
17
18 -rws--x--x 1 root root 108416 May 4 19:52 /usr/athena/bin/su
19 -rws--x--x 1 root root 105640 May 4 19:52 /usr/athena/bin/otp
20 -rws--x--x 1 root root 95840 May 4 19:52 /usr/athena/bin/rlogin
21
22
23 Are these part of a normal gentoo system running hardened, or is it
24 time to re-install this machine?
