So lynis and rkhunter give me a bunch of warning about permissions, deleted files in use, empty ruleset under firewalls 2 nameservers /dev and /dev/shim partially hardened partially hardened mount options at / are non default systemd-analyze security almost everything under there is classified as unsafe or exposed from Cron.services anaron.service everything type of service it says password protection none but I do have a password I have booted from my usb and reinstalled parrot OS 5 times not to mention this has been a problem on my Mac Ventura aswell but Im more concerned with this Linux computer as I should have control of this! I cant seem to get rid of all these files Ive worked side by side with my jailbroke chatgpt we cant get it. Please someone help me what logs or info do you need? I know its made its way to the kernel because that what a lkm means loadable kernel module. Somehow its even useing raspberrypi kernel modules instead of Linux Heres some of what the tool says

I have a parrot OS security ed. I ran that because I thought I was getting hacked quite some time ago and just been trying to pin point where and what but after no answer that’s what is left that could survived a system wipe a new operating system

Send logs as text not as images.

What is your knowledge of computer security, what makes you think you're being hacked?

They mentioned Parrot OS, which leads the discussion into a topic that the OP does not understand what they are seeing, nor inquiring about.

So according to that Im screwed then huh. ? Thats what it sounds like its doing. My to hunter tool said I have a Trojan - Variant A DM worm. And a ajakit trojan now on my MAC OS air its ridiculous what this has done to my life trying to get it gone. Ive spent so much time on it now. I know for certain because files change I dont have the permission to stop them starting Theres cron and private folders with all my tools and other folders with a copy of them. Seems they linked a lot of thing so when I run or use something some script also runs for them. I have ssh used as well as a server.
After doing a system reset thing was of of the logs sign /var/mp/OSPersonalizationTemp/11F6FFDO-5914-48C3-830F-D2937A94A8F5-SignedManifestsSandbox/System/Library/KernelCollectians/BaatKernelExt
Theres a bunch of those but its hard for me to post logs I didnt want to sign on my computer so give them password just praying my iOS isnt hit as well. But if you need logs to help more I guess Ill sign on and get them. What ones would be of interest? Does etrecheck help? I just need this gone off my parrot and Mac OS. But yet to find anything of removing I got 2 antivirus and malwarebytes to no help this rootkit actully modified its files before I got it to run because i checked

I have uploaded a bunch of PDFs I had on my iphone to virus total and a lot of them were connecting back to the malicious sites that were malware themselves, dropped files ,deleted files and wrote files .. I wasnt aware a simple pdf could do all that.

What sites and can you link us to the pdfs?

I had a cryptominer on my server, and that was pesky.

All my commands are changed he uses the _ ones I think but it wont let me run those ones. I deleted the pdfs but I can find them again but virus total tells me a bunch of stuff I mean I got pages of modules and ip address but theyre all screenshots. How can I put my old kernel and boot configuration on instead of this one.?
