Subject: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> Someone is trying to execute file:
 [//////////////]

I know that the LKRG's UMH blocking feature is supposed to block execution of 
files from paths which aren't whitelisted (when lkrg.umh_validate is set to 
"1"). But what file is it actually blocking when I get bunch of the following 
messages in the log?

kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> !!! BLOCKING UMH !!!
kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> Someone is trying to execute file: [//////////////]
kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> --- . ---

I've seen something like the following:

kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> !!! BLOCKING UMH !!!
kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> Someone is trying to execute file: [/sbin/modprobe]
kernel: [p_lkrg] <Exploit Detection> --- . ---

And in this case the name is displayed, so there's no problem here, but what 
about the "slasher" file?

Also I have question concerning the feature itself -- will it be possible to 
define some custom paths to be included in the whitelist via sysctl?
