Security issues of replication-manager #1204
Description

The following code was obtained by me during the installation of Rocky Linux.
Will this cause security issues because the root key file has been copied? Or perhaps my concerns are wrong or even unnecessary.
[root@mydb02 ~]# yum install replication-manager-osc
