Q: rkhunter scan results Im new to Ubuntu and im looking for some help.
I've scanned my Ubuntu with rkhunter and I have some concerning results:
Warning: The following processes are using deleted files:

I would like to know if these are false positives or real threats abd how to fix them.
Thank you very much!

A: RKHunter is famous for it's false positives. ClamAV is better!
Those 3 hidden directories are not dangerous! I get exactly these notifications since 2010.
The /etc/.java is created by Oracle Java and also by OpenJDK for digital certificates.
The /dev/.udev is created by the udevd daemon.
The /dev/.initramfs symlink for /run/initramfs is where the initial ram filesystem is mounted during the system boot process.
You can remove them without problem, they will be recreated by the system when necessary.
