I am trying to run rkhunter, but it is giving me this output:

stack/security/rkhunter-1.4.6
➜ sudo rkhunter --check
Password:
Invalid BINDIR configuration option: Invalid directory found: ~/.dotnet/tools
Invalid BINDIR configuration option: Invalid directory found: 
Workbooks.app/Contents/SharedSupport/path-bin

How do I go into my PATH variable and remove these directories from all shell sessions? None of these directories are in my .bash_profile or .bashrc.

  • Check if you have a .profile or .bash_login file in your home directory.

    You are most likely not getting those errors due to presence of the mentioned directories in your $PATH. Rather it's the error thrown by the command due to missing configuration files. Try reinstalling rkhunter by running brew reinstall rkhunter.

  • @NimeshNeema yes I had a .bash_profile. Do you want to see its contents? I reinstalled rkhunter with that command, but it still doesn't work when I run the check.

  • It's most likely an error due to invalid configuration. Please edit the question to include the complete command line that you are running.

  • What about ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_rc ?

  • export PATH="/Users/developer/.gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin:$PATH" # Add RVM to PATH for scripting. Make sure this is the last PATH variable change. export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin" export EDITOR="/usr/local/bin/mate -w"

  • This is ~/.bash_rc. ~/.bash_profile is too long to post in comments.
