What's new in Sudo 1.7.2? |
|
|
|
* A new #includedir directive is available in sudoers. This can be |
|
used to implement an /etc/sudo.d directory. Files in an includedir |
|
are not edited by visudo unless they contain a syntax error. |
|
|
|
* The -g option did not work properly when only setting the group |
|
(and not the user). Also, in -l mode the wrong user was displayed |
|
for sudoers entries where only the group was allowed to be set. |
|
|
|
* Fixed a problem with the alias checking in visudo which |
|
could prevent visudo from exiting. |
|
|
|
* Sudo will now correctly parse the shell-style /etc/environment |
|
file format used by pam_env on Linux. |
|
|
|
* When doing password and group database lookups, sudo will only |
|
cache an entry by name or by id, depending on how the entry was |
|
looked up. Previously, sudo would cache by both name and id |
|
from a single lookup, but this breaks sites that have multiple |
|
password or group database names that map to the same uid or |
|
gid. |
|
|
|
* User and group names in sudoers may now be enclosed in double |
|
quotes to avoid having to escape special characters. |
|
|
|
* BSM audit fixes when changing to a non-root uid. |
|
|
|
* Experimental non-Unix group support. Currently only works with |
|
Quest Authorization Services and allows Active Directory groups |
|
fixes for Minix-3. |
|
|
|
* For Netscape/Mozilla-derived LDAP SDKs the certificate and key |
|
paths may be specified as a directory or a file. However, version |
|
5.0 of the SDK only appears to support using a directory (despite |
|
documentation to the contrary). If SSL client initialization |
|
fails and the certificate or key paths look like they could be |
|
default file name, strip off the last path element and try again. |
|
|
|
* A setenv() compatibility fix for Linux systems, where a NULL |
|
value is treated the same as an empty string and the variable |
|
name is checked against the NULL pointer. |
