Hi SuSE security community, ldconfig / ld.so seems to include /usr/local/lib first and before /usr/lib. Is this the right order to load libraries ? Due some installation (self compiled version + suse-package) of nessus I found this "strange behavoir". /usr/sbin/nessusd started with the "self compiled" /usr/local/lib/* files. I expected this order only with a set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. May be it's define to take the pathes of /etc/ld.so.conf first. Does somebody an official definition of the "ld.so.conf" order ? Best regards, Christian PS: It's not a security problem until somebody is able to write a modified library to /usr/local/lib which is taken earlier than the /usr/lib/...
