Chkrootkit False Positive?

0

After setting up a fresh Kali system in VB I decided to do a chkrootkit to check the filesystem. Chkrootkit identified a lot of suspicious files. Is this a false positive or something to be concerned about?

The following suspicious files and directories were found:
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/bundler/templates/newgem/.travis.yml.tt /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/libv8/.location.yml /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/tabulate-0.7.7.egg-info/.PKG-INFO.swp

There were more however I decided not to copy and paste all of them as there were a lot.

All of those files were installed by you, when you installed, Ruby – Ramhound – 2018-03-11T16:34:16.957

Any explanation as to why I shouldn't worry about it? Also I never installed Ruby and that also doesn't answer the question of should I be concerned or is this a false positive? – Spencer – 2018-03-11T17:03:17.857

Cool, thank you for the explanation. Are there real time scanners available for kali? – Spencer – 2018-03-19T04:14:03.863
