|
|
.Pp
|
|
The variables described below can be set to modify the tests:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width fetch_pkg_vulnerabilities
|
|
.It Sy find_core_ignore_fstypes
|
|
Lists filesystem types to ignore during the
|
|
.Sy find_core
|
|
phase.
|
|
Prefixing the type with a
|
|
.Sq \&!
|
|
inverts the match.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Ql procfs !local
|
|
will ignore
|
|
.Ql procfs
|
|
type filesystems and filesystems that are not
|
|
.Ql local .
|
|
.It Sy find_core_ignore_paths
|
|
Lists paths to ignore during the
|
|
.Sy find_core
|
|
phase.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Ql Pa /export
|
|
will not descend into any directories under the
|
|
.Ql Pa /export
|
|
hierarchy.
|
|
This, on a file server, allows to skip
|
|
user data while still scanning system files.
|
|
.It Sy run_fsck_flags
|
|
Extra options to be passed to
|
|
.Xr fsck 8
|
|

|
|

If set, the report generated by the
|
|
.Sy run_security
|
|
phase will always be sent, even if it is empty.
|
|
.It Sy pkgdb_dir
|
|
.Em DEPRECATED .
|
|
Please set
|
|
.Dv PKGDB_DIR
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr pkg_install.conf 5
|
|
instead.
|
|
.Pp
