Summary0004602: inetsim pem key file is owned by root user
Description

Tested from kali uname -
Linux HOSTNAME
4.12.0-kali1-amd64 0000001 SMP
Debian 4.12.6-1kali6 (2017-08-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux

The root user owns the inetsim pem file mentioned below-

/usr/share/inetsim/data/certs/default_key.pem

this will cause an error and exit apt-get even if --force-yes -y --assume-yes or other variation is used to continue / accept defaults

apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade 

The apt-get fails when attempting to access the previously mentioned file used by inetsim and exists the process. This can vbe an issue when dealing with scripted actions. The fix for this error would be to chmod the file and reassign the owner to inetsim as shown below.

chown inetsim /usr/share/inetsim/data/certs/default_key.pem

After the user is assigned the owner of the file, apt-get continues with no issues.

Steps To Reproduce

apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade
