[Bug 584484] Re: chkrootkit incorrectly identifies bindshell if mailserver runs tls

[C de-Avillez]

Thank you for opening this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This is
an expected (potential) false-positive. From
/usr/share/doc/chkrootkit/README.FALSE-POSITIVES:

(...)
bindshell listens on a lot of ports.  these ports are also used by other
legitimate programs.  chkrootkit's detection algorithm cannot determine
the difference between a legitimate program and bindshell.
(...)

As such, closing INVALID (not a bug).

** Changed in: chkrootkit (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low

       Status: New => Invalid
