• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Rootkit Hunter reports Suspect files: 1 on a fresh installation

Here is the summary from Rootkit:

I suspect it might be related to this entry:
[01:01:06] /opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/rkhunter.conf [ Warning ]
[01:01:06] Warning: Package manager verification has failed:
[01:01:06] File: /opt/psa/etc/modules/watchdog/rkhunter.conf
[01:01:07] The file hash value has changed

Ideally, I would like to set it up so a fresh install has no errors. If the problem is a changed hash value on rkhunter.conf is there a way to correct the issue after modifying this file?

Thanks.
 
rkhunter --propupd will update your system file properties.

Hello,
I ran the command:
# /opt/psa/admin/bin/modules/watchdog/rkhunter --propupd
[ Rootkit Hunter version 1.4.4 ]
File updated: searched for 180 files, found 145

However, after rerunning rkhunter, I had the same result.
