"ptrace detected" on the CS:GO process from steam #610

I checked dmesg, and every time I inject the cheat, I can see several lines of ptrace attach of "/path/to/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/csgo_linux64 -steam -fullscreen"[9635] was attempted by "/path/to/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam"[4126]. Need I be worried? Does this mean that VAC has already found me? If so, what can I do?

the loading script disables ptrace, VAC uses ptrace on csgo to read memory. If ptrace is disabled it cannot and Linux itself prints an error in your dmesg. This is fine because ptrace is disabled on some distros for security.
