[Bug 629723] [NEW] False Positive: IRCDs running on port 6667

[TrekCaptainUSA]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: chkrootkit

This program detects falsely an infection on port 6667.  This is the
case with an IRCD running on port 6667 being detected as bindshell.

This is a bug, but also could the documentation on false positives be
amended to include the info about ircds also triggering false positives?


System Info: Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, both 32-bit and 64-bit server editions (multiple servers)

** Affects: chkrootkit (Ubuntu)
