+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #452390 +++ Description of problem: PATH records, as output by the kernel, contain a newline after the flags fields, which is in the middle of the record. EXECVE records contain a newline after every argument. auditd seems to hide this, but they're there nevertheless. If you're not using auditd, you need to work round them. I've attached a patch which I think would fix them. However, I'm not able to test the patch *at all* right now (even for compilation). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.9-67.0.15.EL --- Additional comment from mbooth on 2008-06-21 18:15:46 EDT --- Created an attachment (id=309983) Patch to remove bogus newlines in PATH and EXECVE records --- Additional comment from pm-rhel on 2008-09-03 09:02:36 EDT --- Updating PM score.
