Description Syton 2012-11-27 07:57:44 UTC
After emerging chkrootkit and run. Below is the result but I'm not satisfied with checking sniffer ...wlan0.
Basically, wpa_supplicant is not enabled on my Gentoo Desktop xfce box, is just a dependency of Networkmanager. Do anyone have an idea or similar security issue? At the moment I don't consider it safe.

I'm not seeking support of what so ever, but simply don't find sniffer report normal.

it should be look into for possible vulnerbilities with wpa_supplicant.
