I've had the same problem, so I compiled the binary and the library separately (only for x86 64) and made an archive from the working check. It has a test-remote.sh script, pass to it a hostname (example.com, someone@example.com, the name of an entry from your SSH config, ..., whatever scp takes) and it will upload PwnKit to the host, run the exploit and if you get a shell, well, the host is vulnerable. And then use it to fix it (either update policykit or chmod 0755 /usr/bin/pkexec).

sudo apt update sudo apt install build-essential

install gcc

install gcc

not always a good idea, especially not when you are testing production servers
