There are altered RPMs

Symptoms

You may receive emails stating "There are altered RPMs".

Description 

This email is sent if a file is found to be different from what is provided by an RPM package.

Workaround

Typically this is the result of YUM updates or cPanel updates.

To check for YUM updates, run the following command. If there is a recent update for the package in the alert, then it can be dismissed.

grep Updated /var/log/yum.log

To check for cPanel updates, run the following command. If there is a change in the detected version near the time of the email, alerts for altered RPMs for cPanel provided services can be dismissed.

egrep "Detected version" /var/cpanel/updatelogs/*.log
