[!] Change ownership of /home/kali/lynis/include/functions to 'root' or similar (found: kali with UID 1000).
Command:
# chown 0:0 /home/kali/lynis/include/functions
[X] Security check failed
Why do I see this error?
-------------------------------
This is a protection mechanism to prevent the root user from executing user created files. The files may be altered, or including malicious pieces of script.
What can I do?
---------------------
Option 1) Check if a trusted user created the files (e.g. due to using Git, Homebrew or similar).
If you trust these files, you can decide to continue this run by pressing ENTER.
Option 2) Change ownership of the related files (or full directory).
Commands (full directory):
# cd ..
# chown -R 0:0 lynis
# cd lynis
# ./lynis audit system

Why do I see this error?
-------------------------------
This is a protection mechanism to prevent the root user from executing user created files. The files may be altered, or including malicious pieces of script.
