sudo chkrootkit
Searching for Linux.Xor.DDoS ... INFECTED: Possible Malicious Linux.Xor.DDoS installed

I hope so.

I have just tried to replicate this and it didn't flag the file as INFECTED.

Does this also happen with v1.2.2 ? Can you upgrade chrootkit ?

Man i almost lost my 2TB VPC because it was sending spam, the provider threatened me a little.

chrootkit is latest on ubuntu 20.04 where I installed it. probably false positive but I won't redownload it.
VPC was killed and I reinstalled my sht on a new one. we will never know
