.so files in ReadyNAS NV+ root
Hi there,
Well stuff has changed around here. The old link brought in a new home. Looks good here. Nice.
Still running my ReadyNAS NV+ to the max. Still working fine. Update the firmware and stuff last week. But I noticed new files popping up in the root of the NAS. They have the extention .so. I think they are related to the new update, but just want to make sure.
Content of the files are similar to the text below.
=======================
__gmon_start__ _init _fini _ITM_deregisterTMCloneTable _ITM_registerTMCloneTable __cxa_finalize _Jv_RegisterClasses
loop_pipe fork exit dup2 close execvp wait spawn_reverse_shell htons inet_addr socket connect execve getppid umask setsid

Thanks in advance.

Hello JanHi,
.so file is a compiled library file. It stands for "Shared Object" which is equivalent to Windows' .dll file. So, it could be, I think, a file that contains your logins to add-ons of your NAS which I think you should keep and will not harm your system and files.

Any add-ons installed? Do you forward ports to your NAS?

Hi mdgm,
Had ReadyNAS Remote active, but it is overdue. Not using it anymore. Other than that, pretty vanilla.
