| Jun 3, 2011 at 12:59 | comment | added | user732 | I encountered a rootkit (tragedy/dor) on a Solaris box 10 years ago. It did a similar thing with any file name ending in '0'. ls failed to show the file or directory, but shell globbing and open(2) or fopen(3) worked find. | |

@Heandel: Or run a binary named something other than md5sum off of a USB stick, just in case md5sum has been fiddled too.

You should md5sum /bin/ls and check it against another CentOS 5.6.

| Jun 3, 2011 at 7:18 | comment | added | cnicutar | @ysth I don't think it's a rootkit (bash globs it fine). | |
| Jun 3, 2011 at 7:17 | comment | added | ysth | anybody know if this is a symptom of a rootkit? | |
| Jun 3, 2011 at 7:16 | comment | added | cnicutar | Sounds like a compromised box. | |

How very bizarre. I'm extremely curious as to what's going on here. It sounds like something in the ls tool itself since echo * works.
