1.6.4 Ensure prelink is disabled

Warning! Audit Deprecated

This audit has been deprecated and will be removed in a future update.

Information

prelinkis a program that modifies ELF shared libraries and ELF dynamically linked binaries in such a way that the time needed for the dynamic linker to perform relocations at startup significantly decreases.

Rationale:

The prelinking feature can interfere with the operation of AIDE, because it changes binaries. Prelinking can also increase the vulnerability of the system if a malicious user is able to compromise a common library such as libc.
