CHANGES since sudo 1.2 01) sudo now works under hpux, aix, sunos, bsd43, ultrix, linux, osf and irix. 02) Files w/o the executable bit will be ignored if they are in your PATH. 03) If execv() fails, perror is called (which prints out an error based on errno) and sudo exits with -1. 04) Included in this shar should also be a version of getpass() derived from the bsd net-2 source which works on bsd, ultrix, hpux, aix, and irix at least. The latter three unixes have what i consider to be a broken getpass() in that if /dev/tty can't be opened it doesn't just use stdin like bsd getpass(). This means you cannot do: rsh host "sudo command" and have it work if your ticket has expired. 05) The Makefile has changed significantly. It now has defines for all supported architectures. 06) Changed MAXCOMMANDLENGTH from 48 bytes to MAXPATHLEN and included sys/param.h where appropriate. 07) Rewrote the code that expands links & paths. It now works correctly. (rewrote find_path.c) 08) Added a define NEED_STRDUP so we don't conflict with the system's strdup(3) 09) Now does *not* pass LD_* environmental vars on to programs that get exec'd. Also removes SHLIB_PATH for hpux and _RLD_* for dec osf. 10) Now searches current dir last if '.' or '' are in PATH. Misses braindeath like './' but if that's in your path you deserve all the trojans you get. 11) Added in linux patches from drew + flex support. 12) Added insults back in from original sudo(8) (define USE_INSULTS). 13) visudo now uses EDITOR envar (from John_Rouillard@dl5000.bc.edu) 14) you can now specify a dir containing commands that a sudoer can do. (from John_Rouillard@dl5000.bc.edu) 15) Ported to Solaris 2.x (based on a port of sudo 1.1 done by UnixOps). 16) Took out setuid(0); setruid(uid); pairs that bracketed calls to update_timestamp() since they are unnecessary and setruid() is broken on systems without a setreuid(2) or setresuid(2) system call. (Ie: AIX and Solaris 2.x). 17) The bulk of sudo now runs with the caller's real uid. Grep for be_root() to find the exceptions. CHANGES from sudo 1.3 18) Added SECURE_PATH as suggested by russells@ccu1.auckland.ac.nz. 19) Reworked clean_envp() to modify environ (not envp) so we can use execvp() safely. 20) Now use execvp() instead of execve() so sudo /bin/kill works under broken solaris. This also fixed sudo /etc/fastboot under stock 4.3 BSD. Basically, this means that any executable shell script that lacks a '#!/bin/sh' magic number will now work with sudo. Personally I think that the broken scripts should be fixed rather than changing sudo, but vendors will be broken. Sigh. 21) Added USE_EXECV define so you can make sudo use execv() if you want. Using execvp() shouldn't be a problem since it is always handed a non-relative path that begins with '/' but some people may not trust execvp(). 22) Log file lines will no longer get truncated. Syslog entries that would overrun the syslog(3) line limit are continued on another entry. 23) When logging to a log file, long entries are indented to improve readability. 24) Whenever the umask is changed, it is changed back to what it was before. 25) Log file is written as mode 600 instead of 644 26) Umask that sudo runs with may now be specified. 27) There is now a "configure" script. 28) Sudo will use ultra fast crypt (ufc) if it finds it for systems w/o a real crypt(3) (non-US ConvexOS/Secure for instance). 29) _BSD_COMPAT is now defined for Irix. 30) The global variable uid is now initialized to -2 because I'm paranoid. 31) Native Solaris 2 port from Matthew.Stier@aisg.com 32) Now use sysconf(2) instead of getdtablesize(2) if it is available (see change #31). Because of the the getdtablesize() emulation for hpux is no longer necessary. 33) Now only do a getcwd(3) or getwd(3) once and do it as the real user. Sudo should no longer complain that it can't get the cwd unless there is a real problem. 34) Changed some malloc'd globals of fixed length to be allocated from the stack instead as there was no win in allocating them from the heap. 35) Fixed AIX STATIC_FLAGS as per the AIX faq. 36) Added -V flag to sudo and visudo (for version) 37) Now treat EACCESS like EPERM when doing stat(2) in find_path.c 38) Added prototypes for sudo functions (via __P macro) 39) configure now uses uname(1) if it exists 40) gethostbyname(3) is now only called if you define FQDN. There's really no reason to not trust gethostname(2) and this way if name service is hosed sudo isn't... 41) added -v (validate) flag to sudo to update a timestamp w/o running a command 42) now use tgetpass() (getpass with a timeout) 43) find_path() now uses realpath(3) 44) wrote versions of realpath(3) and getcwd(3) for those without 45) wrote tgetpass()--a getpass() that times out via select(2) 46) sudo now uses posix signals if available 47) Finally added ConvexOS C2 security support from "Peter A. Nikitser, Systems Software Support, QUT" 48) You can now #undef MAILER if you don't run sendmail or the equivalent. 49) AFS support from adamh@austin.ibm.com 50) If you define BOTH_LOGS in sudo.h you can log both via syslog(3) *ans* to a log file. 51) Added ultrix /etc/auth (enhanced security) support. 52) Sudo now will work with a 4.2BSD syslog (SunOS < 4 && ultrix). Personally, I'd say you are better off logging to a file if your syslog is this ancient. 53) Changed realpath(3) to sudo_realpath() since we need to do the chdir(2) with the invoking uid. sudo_realpath() should be faster than vendor-supplied realpath(3)'s anyway... 54) No longer create a static binary on AIX since it reportedly causes problem on newer versions on AIX 3.x. 55) If sudo_realpath cannot chdir() back to cwd sudo will print and error and exit. Previously it would either fail silently or print an incorrect error message. 56) Moved code to send error mail to be after the log message. From rouilj@cs.umb.edu. 57) Added SUDO_USER and SUDO_UID envars. Suggested by John P. Rouillard (. 62) All .{c,lex,yacc} files now include both sys/types.h and unistd.h so we are sure to get the typedef of uid_t. CHANGES from sudo 1.3.1 63) Added preliminary support for DEC OSF/1 protected passwords (shadow passwords). CHANGES from sudo 1.3.1pl1 64) More support for DEC OSF/1 protected passwords (shadow passwords). CHANGES from sudo 1.3.1pl2 65) Fixed mail logging to include the username as it should have. 66) Added hostname to log message in error mail. 67) Added -l flag to sudo to list the allowed/forbidden commands. Suggested by matthew@gateway.bsis.com (Matthew Stier) 68) Fixed bison warnings for parse.yacc and visudo.yacc. Pointed out by alfie@dcs.warwick.ac.uk (Nick Holloway). CHANGES from sudo 1.3.1pl3 69) Sudo will now exit with an error if the command to be run is > MAXPATHLEN. 70) Test in configure for termios support was insufficient. It thought Nextstep 3.2 had termios just because it as termios.h (need to link with -posix for termios on NeXT's) CHANGES from sudo 1.3.1pl4 71) First stab at Skey support. 72) Sudo now sets IFS to be SPACE, TAB, NEWLINE. 73) Sudo now sets the real and effective gid to root's group (based on passwd file). 74) Sudo now checks that the sudoers file is owned by a certain user and not readable or writable by anyone else. (based on a suggestion by Joerg Schumacher ) 75) Visudo now sets the owner on the new sudoers file based on #74 76) Sudo and visudo will now compile with byacc (Berkeley yacc). 77) If the rename(2) of stmp -> sudoers fails /bin/mv is executed before bailing. Based on code from Case Larsen . 78) User-level configuration is now done in options.h. 79) Moved all compatibility #defines to compat.h 80) Incorporated new parsing code from Chris Jepeway . This is much better than the previous parser. 81) Rewrote visudo.c and tickled parse.yacc to work with it. Visudo now gives you options if a parse error occurs rather than blindly dumping you back in the editor. 82) Took out all references to realpath since we are now checking based in inode and device (with Chris' new parser). The upshot of this is that path matches are done safely and the symlink problem has gone away. 83) Fixed bison warnings from new parse.yacc. 84) Added a default case to parse.lex to error on unmatched tokens as Chris suggested. 85) Converted configure.in and acsite.m4 to autoconf 2.1. 86) Added lsearch.c and search.h for os's w/o lsearch()/lfind(). 87) Sudo now checks to see that the file it is executing is a regular file (was just checking the execute bit so dirs slipped through). Pointed out by Barb Dijker . 88) Fixed a problem on HP-UX trusted systems with getpwuid() returning "*" unless the real uid is 0. Reported by Brian Cunnie (cunnie@nyc.hp.com). 89) configure now checks for size_t and ssize_t in unistd.h as well as sys/types.h. 90) configure now checks for egrep before actually using it. 91) configure now checks for a working void implementation (ie: void * as a generic pointer) and sets VOID to void or char accordingly. 92) Added support for SunOS 4.x C2 security (shadow passwords) from Kendall Libby (fubar@shore.net) 93) Changed all occurrences of bzero() to memset() and bcopy() to memmove(). 94) Fixed a bug in sudo.c. If a user has no passwd entry sudo would dump core (writing to a garbage pointer). Pointed out by Stephen Schaefer . 95) Worked around a bug in AIX's lex in parse.c. AIX lex doesn't seem to handle {x,y} range notation correctly. Bleah. 96) Sudo would not report a failed attempt if the user entered return at the 2nd password: prompt so someone trying to guess a password could just invoked sudo multiple times and try one passwd at a time. Reported by Jonathan Adams . 97) Added User_Alias facility. 98) Rewrote most of the ip address / network support. Now works on all systems sudo has currently been tested on. 99) Sudo now sets SUDO_COMMAND and SUDO_GID envariables in addition to SUDO_USER and SUDO_UID. 100) Added changes to configure.in for UnixWare. (from John Warburton ) 101) Merged in changes for Interactive Unix and RISCos. (from Andy Smith ) 102) Added testsudoers (from Chris Jepeway ). 103) Added fix for parse.yacc to avoid the kludge I was doing. (from Chris Jepeway ) 104) Now remove the IFS envar if set instead of setting it to a "safe" value to avoid problems with make and others. 105) Added FAST_MATCH option to check basenames of sudo command and paths listed in sudoers file. If the basename doesn't match then it is not a match. If the basename matches, then do a stat to make sure it is a valid match. 106) Now only stat(2) cmnd once in path_matches() (in parse.c). Sudo was stating cmnd for *every* attempted match. Now the stat struct is cached (ie: the var is a static). 107) Signal handlers in visudo are now only installed after the stmp file is opened. Previously, it was possible to erase an open stmp file by sending visudo a signal within a small window. 108) Added Goon Show insults from Russell Street . 109) Broke out the insults into separate include files (insults.h is the master and includes the appropriate one). 110) Now use getwd() instead of getcwd() and provide emulation for OS's w/o it. This was done since some OS's with getwd() implement getcwd() via a pipe to pwd(1). By emulating getwd() by calling getcwd() on OS's w/o getwd() we lose nothing since the compiler should optimize away the extra function call. 111) Added crypt() for DEC OSF/1 3.x enhanced security. From "Richard L Jackson Jr" . 112) Added an option to run the command in the background (-b) as suggested by Jonathan Adams 113) First stab at kerberos support. I'm not really sure it is possible to do this in a sane manor. Sigh. 114) Better kerberos support. Had to use setreuid(2) but falls back on a kludge if that does not exist or is broken. 115) Added -p (password prompt) support. Suggested by "David W. Cooley" 116) Added partial implementation of -l (list) flag. This is probably as good as it will get until sudo:tng. 117) Added anti-spoofing code to tighten up a race condition where a user could run sudo some_link and then change where the link pointed after the old link had been validated but before the exec(). 118) Now update timestamp file via utime() (and emulate via utimes() if necessary) to eliminate a small race. Works with both POSIX utime() as well as old utime() in BSD <= 4.3. 119) Kerberos ticket file now lives in same dirs as sudo timestamp files (to avoid trouncing on normal ticket file) and is removed after validation. 120) Now log tty user is on as well as pwd in sudo logs. CHANGES from sudo 1.3.2 BETA 121) Fixed a bug in the anti-spoofing check. 122) Fixed up ISC support so that it works and looks like non-streams stuff in interfaces.c. 123) Now deal correctly with ip implementations that has an sa_len field in struct sockaddr. 124) Check ownership and permissions on timestamp dir and ignore if not owned by root and mode 0700. Problem pointed out by Larry Auton and Navjot Singh . 125) Ignore timestamp files with preposterous dates to keep people from faking out sudo on OS's that allow you to give away files to root. Problem pointed out by Larry Auton and Navjot Singh . 126) A timeout of 0 will now cause a password to be entered every time. Based on a suggestion by Larry Auton and Navjot Singh . CHANGES from sudo 1.3.3 BETA 127) Cleaned up interfaces.c so that it is more readable. 128) Added support for syslog()'s that don't guarantee delivery of a message. HP-UX is the only known offender. 129) No longer use memmove() since memcpy() does what we need and configure doesn't always catch memmove() even when it is there (may be a library problem). 130) Updated man page to reflect two more security issues. 131) Cleaned up shadow password support in check.c. It should now be readable. 132) Added SCO support. 133) Added check to configure to find the max length of a uid_t in characters. 134) Removed uid2str() since we now know how big a uid_t/gid_t can be. This elminates a few malloc()'s. 135) Added support for multiple insult types. Based on code and a suggestion from Dieter Dworkin Muller . 136) Replaced clean_env() and rmenv() with a rewritten clean_env() that should be a little faster. This also makes it easier to add to the list of "dangerous" envariables. 137) Added netgroup support. Netgroups must start with a leading "+" to that sudo knows it is a netgroup. 138) Split out sudoers file format into its own man page. As suggested by Andy Smith . 139) Updated testsudoers.c to grok netgroups. CHANGES from sudo 1.3.4 BETA 140) Added SecurID support from Giles Todd . 141) Added -s flag to start a root shell and -- to signify end of args. 142) Sped up logging routines by replacing strncpy()'s with strcat()'s. This is safe because we dyanically allocate logline to be big enough. 143) Now support command line arguments in the sudoers file. 144) Sped up the loading on command line arguments. This fixes the "commands with large argc's take forever to run" bug. 145) Expanded MAXCOMMANDLEN to 8K since we now have to deal with command line arguments. Added bounds checking in fill() and append() so we don't drop core. XXX - 8k makes sudo *SLOW* 146) Added support in the lexer for "termination characters" to be escaped. Ie: you can now use [\,:=] in command line args as long as you escape with a \. 147) Testsudoers can now deal with commands that have arguments. 148) If a file is not executable or not a regular file sudo will now give the appropriate error message instead of just "command not found" which is misleading. 149) Fixed a bug where if FQDN is set, load_interfaces() was never called. 150) tty is now a global so it can be used in the ticket file at a later date. 151) Strings in the parser are now allocated dynamically. This results in a large speedup as compared to a 1K array on the stack. I have freed the strings in the parser where appropriate but that may not catch all instances. Even so, the average sudo now takes up less memory than the 1K array version. 152) Fixed a bug in tgetpass() and configure that broke termio/termios support for some OS's. 153) Added cheapo implementation of tty-based timestamps. The correct way is to have username be a directory with the tty tickets inside. However, the current code does not take to that very well, and it does not allow the two systems to coexist. Therefore, instead of timestampdir/user/tty it is timestampdir/user.tty. 154) Added support for building in other than the source directory. Based on changes from "Simon J. Gerraty" 155) options.h and pathnames.h are now included via angle brackets (<>) so as to use the -I include path. This way, those using a shadow build tree may have local copies of these headers w/o clobbering the distribution ones. 156) EXEMPTGROUP is now a string (group name) and user_is_exempt() is now less of a hack. It uses getgrnam(EXEMPTGROUP) to get a list of users in the exempted group. 157) --prefix and --exe_prefix are now honored in the Makefile. 158) Sudo will now behave reasonably in the case where the sudoers file location is mounted via NFS and the client does not have "root" NFS privs. 159) _PATH_SUDO_SUDOERS, _PATH_SUDO_STMP, and SUDOERS_OWNER are now set via the Makefile since that appears to be what most people expect... 160) Now include a pre-generated version of parse.lex since so many versions of lex are brain damaged. If parse.lex is changed a new lex.yy.c will be generated. The distribution copy is sudo-lex.yy.c. 161) Upgraded to GNU autoconf version 1.5. There are now even *more* options. CHANGES from sudo 1.3.5 BETA 162) Fixed S/Key support. 163) Cleaned up shadow password support further by moving much of it to getspwuid.c. 164) First cut at DCE support. [needs work to be functional] 165) New Digital UNIX C2 support based on code from "Randy M. Hayman" 166) S/key support now works with the generic bellcore s/key as well as the s/key from Wietse Venema's logdaemon. (Previously only worked with the logdaemon s/key). As an added bonus the s/key challenge is now embedded in the password prompt for a cleaner look. 167) lsearch.c will now compile on a strict ANSI C compiler. ANSI doesn't allow pointer arithmetic on a "void *" but gcc does. 168) Bought back latest HP-UX DCE support from Jeff Earickson . 169) configure now comletely groks $SUDO_LIBS and $VISUDO_LIBS. Plain old $LIBS is no longer used. LDFLAGS has also been split up into $SUDO_LDFLAGS and $VISUDO_LDFLAGS. The reason for this is that sudo often needs extra libs for alternate authentication schemes but visudo rarely does. 170) The code to copy command arguments flaied for large values of argc due to realloc() lossage. We now cheat and treat argv[] as a flat string (since that's what it is) and use pointer arithmetic to compute the length. Kind of sneaky but it works (and is relatively fast). CHANGES from sudo 1.3.6 BETA 171) Added support for UN*X groups in sudoers based on code from Dougal Scott . 172) interfaces.c should work on ISC UN*X again. 173) All source files are <= 14 characters for old SYSV filesystems. CHANGES from sudo 1.3.7 GAMMA 174) Minor configure[.in] fixes. 175) tgetpass.c now compiles on OS's that put the definition of fd_set in CHANGES from sudo 1.4 176) Command args in sudoers are now stored in an argument vector instead of a flat string to make wildcard matching simpler. 177) Added NewArgv and NewArgc that describe the command to be executed. The copy of args in cmnd_args is no longer necessary and has been removed. 178) Using strcmp(3) for argument matching in command_matches() (was path_matches()) is no longer sufficient since we don't have a flat string. compare_args() is used instead which calls either strcmp(3) or wildmat(3l) depending on whether there are shell-style meta chars (wildcards) present. 179) Shell-style wildcard matches are now available in the sudoers file. Matches are done via Rich $alz's wildmat(3). This required the tweaks described in #176-178 as well as other, more minor, changes. 180) Commented out rule to build lex.yy.c from parse.lex since we ship with a pre-flex'd parser and can't rely on file dates being set correctly. 181) Fixed visudo and testsudoers to deal with new argument vector handling. 182) A null string ("") as shell in passwd file (or $SHELL) is now treated as the bourne shell. 183) Converted *.man to pod format for easy conversion to man, html, latex, and just plain text. Tried to make the sudoers manual easier to read in the process. 184) Updated sample.sudoers and sudoers.pod to include info on wildcards. CHANGES from sudo 1.4.1 185) compat.h now defines _PASSWD_LEN based on PASS_MAX if it is defined (from limits.h on SYSV). 186) Both short and long hostnames may now be used in the sudoers file if FQDN is defined. From patches submitted by Michael Meskes . 187) Now use skeylookup() instead of skeychallenge(). Hopefully this will work around a problem some people have reported on Solaris 2.5 with sudo and logdaemon 5.0's skey. 188) Now uses /var/run to hold timestamp files if it exists. This is more secure. 189) configure now puts the timestamp dir in /var/run if it exists. Sugestion by Michael Meskes . 190) Both short and long hostnames now exist even if FQDN is not set. This allows machines with fully qualified hostnames set via hostname(1) to use them in the sudoers file. 191) sudo was not honoring "." in $PATH due to a bug in find_path(). 192) Added IGNORE_DOT_PATH option to ignore "." in $PATH. 193) tgetpass() now uses raw read(2) and write(2) instead of stdio. This should make it work on more OS's. Previously, it used stdio (buffered) fgets(3) and fputs(3) with select(2) which may not be legal. Also got rid of the nasty goto's and generally simplified the code. 194) Parser now supports hostnames like UPPERCASE.foo.com. Previously, `UPPERCASE' was interpreted as an Alias. This means that the `fqdn' stuff has been moved to the lexer (FQHOST is used to avoid collision with FQDN option). 195) Reworked --with-FOO in configure.in to support --without-FOO. Made shadow passwords the default for appropriate OS's. They can be turned off with --without-C2. 196) Added NO_PASSWD option for those who don't want to be bothered by a password prompt from sudo. This is really just a hack. 197) Added support for double quotes to mean "treat these words as one argument". This is similar to what most shells do. 198) Added mkinstalldirs to make install destination dirs if they do not already exist. CHANGES from sudo 1.4.2 199) Added support for --with-CC (which C compiler to use). 200) Added support for NOPASSWD token and running commands a specified users (sudo -u) from Keith Garry Boyce 201) Only link with -lshadow for Linux if libc lacks getspnam(). Problem pointed out by Michael Meskes . 202) Replaced SUDOERS_OWNER with SUDOERS_UID and SUDOERS_GID. Added SUDOERS_MODE and changed the default to 0440 (from 0400). It is now possible to NFS-mount sudoers without doing anything fancy. 202) If a runas list is specified, a user may only run commands as "root" if "root" is a member of the runas list. The old behavior was to always allow commands to be run as root, even if a runas list was specified. Now you can give someone "sudo -u operator" and not have the equivalent of "sudo -u root" as well. 203) Added "USER=%s" to logging functions. 204) configure will now add -lPW to (VI)?SUDO_LIBS if using bison or DCE and alloca(3) is not in libc (or provided by gcc) but is in libPW.a. 205) sudo would give an incorrect error message if the sudoers file didn't exist due to close() stomping errno if the open() failed. 206) Fixed "shell" mode (sudo -s). When building NewArgv sudo was not allocating space for the NULL. 207) Added support for wildcards in the pathname. Ie: /bin/*. 208) 'command ""' in sudoers now means no args allowed. 209) Added command line args to SUDO_COMMAND envariable. 210) HP-UX 10.x with C2 now uses bigcrypt(). Changes from david_dill@Merck.Com (David Dill). 211) lsearch.c will now compile w/o compiler warnings. (Updated from NetBSD lsearch.c) 212) Now uses POSIX fnmatch(3) (which uses ! instead of ^ in ranges) CHANGES from sudo 1.4.3 213) Now allows network/netmask in sudoers to override per-interface netmask. 214) Fixed -u support with multiple user lists on a line. 215) Fixed a core dump problem when built with -DSHELL_IF_NO_ARGS. 216) Fixed 2 typos in parse.yacc and removed some unnecessary if's. 217) Now always use install-sh since SunOS install can't do uid/gid's. Other BSD installs are probably similarly afflicted. 218) Fixed NFS-mounted sudoers file under solaris both uid *and* gid were being set to -2. Now set uid to 1 to avoid group being remapped. 219) Now includes alloca.c (from gcc) for those w/o it. Linking against -lPW breaks visudo on HP-UX and probably others. 220) Added --with-libpath, --with-libraries, --with-incpath options to configure. 221) configure now uses shicc instead of gcc on BSD/OS >= 2.0 to generate binaries linked with shared libs. 222) The parser was setting no_passwd even if there wasn't a runas match. I reordered some things in parse.yacc to fix this. 223) `sudo -v' (validate) wasn't paying attention to NOPASSWD. Now it does. 224) testsudoers now groks "-u user". 225) Updated AFS support based on what tcsh 6.06 does. 226) Fixed a typo/thinko that broke BSD > 4.3reno wrt interfaces.c. 227) HPUX 10.X shadow password stuff now uses SecureWare routines. 228) SecureWare passwd checking now uses bigcrypt() if available. Now uses AUTH_MAX_PASSWD_LENGTH if defined. 229) configure now makes sure you don't have a config.cache file from another OS. 230) Added better shadow password detection. BSD >= 4.3reno -> /etc/master.passwd hpux9: getspwnam() -> /.secure/etc/passwd hpux10: getspnam() or getprpwnam() -> /tcb/files/auth/*/* (link with -lsec) SVR4: getspnam() -> /etc/shadow solaris: getspnam() -> /etc/shadow irix[56].x: getspnam() -> /etc/shadow sunos 4.x: getpwanam() -> /etc/security/passwd.adjunct DUNIX: getprpwnam() -> /tcb/files/auth/*/* (link with -lsecurity) SecureWare: getprpwnam() -> /tcb/files/auth/*/* ultrix 4.x: getauthuid() -> /etc/auth.{pag,dir} 231) '(' in command args no longer are a syntax error. 232) '!command' now works in the presence of a runas or NOPASSWD token. Simplified parse rules wrt runas and NOPASSWD (more consistent). 233) Command args and now compared as a flat string again. This makes wildcard matches more consistent. 234) DUNIX C2 support now groks AUTH_CRYPT_OLDCRYPT and AUTH_CRYPT_C1CRYPT. 235) configure now uses config.{sub,guess} to guess OS type. Sudo should work out of the box on more OS's now. 236) Got rid of HAVE_C2_SECURITY, now just use SHADOW_TYPE. 237) Fixed race in tgetpass() where echo can be turned off and left off if sudo is used in a pipeline and a password is required. CHANGES from sudo 1.4.4 238) `sudo -l' output now includes runas and NOPASSWD info and asks for a password unless NOPASSWD for ALL is set. 239) Sudo can now deal with all-caps user and host names. 240) Sudo will now remove the "ENV" and "BASH_ENV" envariables. From Michael Meskes . 241) `sudo -l' will now expand Cmnd_Alias's (could be prettier). 242) `sudo -s' will now set $HOME to root's homedir (or that of the user specified -u) so dot files get sourced. CHANGES from sudo 1.4.5 243) $HOME was always being set, not just with `-s'. 244) In visudo, the owner and group of the sudoers file were being set too early; an editor could change them and change the owner/group of the resulting sudoers file. CHANGES from sudo 1.5 245) Added SHELL_SETS_HOME option. 246) Added NO_MESSAGE option. 247) Added %u and %h escapes in PASSPROMPT to expand to user's name and host. 248) Added "SUDO_PROMPT" envariable. 249) Usernames may now begin with a digit. Gross, but people do it. Sudo 1.5.1 released. 250) Added `opie' support. 251) Added check to make sure fnmatch() really works. 252) Now use the prompt S/Key gives us instead of rolling our own. 253) Added -H flag from Danny Barron . 254) Add SUDO_PS1 envariable support. 255) Attempt at sequent support. Sudo 1.5.2 released. 256) visudo acts sanely when there is no sudoers file. 257) Added Runas_Alias support. 258) Sudo will now work with SUDOERS_MODE == 400 and SUDO_UID = 0. 259) Alias's in a runas list are now expanded. 260) Fixed bug with > 32 saved aliases. Reported by BHH@capgroup.com. 261) Code that uses sprintf() is now more paranoid about buffer overflows. 262) Whitespace is now allowed after a line continuation character before a newline in sudoers. 263) %h in MAILSUBJECT expands to local hostname. Sudo 1.5.3 released. 264) Don't pass getdtablesize() as first arg to select(2). No need to do this since we only select on one fd--use (fd+1) as nfds and the old way caused problems on some systems (arguably a bug in those OS's). From Marc Slemko marcs@znep.com. 265) Fixed coredump when passwd file is missing or unavailable. Reported by Jason Downs and Klee Dienes (via a Debian Linux bug report). 266) Fixed bug wrt exclusion lists and relative pathnames. Reported by osiris@COURIER.CB.LUCENT.COM. 267) exit(1) if user doesn't enter a passwd. Noted by Alex Parchkov . Sudo 1.5.4 released. 268) Newer versions of Irix use _RLDN32_* envariables for 32-bit binaries so ignore _RLD* instead of _RLD_*. From tarrall@bamboo.Colorado.EDU. 269) Only open sudoers file once as opposed to once for sanity checks and once for the parser. Also try to open ten times if we get EAGAIN. Sudo 1.5.5 released. 270) Initialize group vector if we are becoming a user other than root. For root, it is often more useful to hang on to our existing group vector. 271) Fix usage of select(2) to deal correctly with a high-numbered fd. 272) Fixed a bug where sudo sometime didn't give the user a chance to enter a password at the prompt. 273) Use a dynamically sized buffer when reading ether interfaces. 274) Fixed configure problems with identification of HP-UX > 10.x and with cc being identified as a cross compiler on some platforms. 275) Fixed a problem with HP-UX 10.x and alloca. Bison does not include alloca.h on HP-UX 10.x even though it uses alloca() (and thus needs the #define of alloca(x) to __builtin_alloca(x)). To fix this we include alloca.h ourselves if using bison and not gcc. 276) Included support for the AIX 4.x authenticate() function from Matt Richards . 277) Fixed an off by one error in the parser. Found by Piete Brooks 278) Change NewArgv size computation to work on UNICOS. From Mike Kienenberger 279) Added --with-logfile and --with-timedir configure options. 280) Use getcwd(3), not getwd(3) to avoid possible buffer overflow. Use BSD getcwd(3) if system lacks one or is SunOS 4.x. 281) Fix 'fprintf' argument mismatches in 'visudo.c'. From ariel@oz.engr.sgi.com (Ariel Faigon) 282) Use waitpid or wait3 to reap children in logging.c. Pointed out by Theo de Raadt 283) Sudo should prompt for a password before telling the user that a command could not be found. Noted by rhodie@NAC.NET. 284) Fix OTP_ONLY for opie; "Deven T. Corzine" . 285) Include pre-yacc'd parse.yacc as sudo.tab.[ch] since more and more vendors are charging for yacc (bad vendor, no cookie). 286) Use MAX*, not MAX*+1 287) Add support for Hitachi SR2201, from b-edgington@hpcc.hitachi-eu.co.uk 288) Added RUNAS_DEFAULT option to allow one to compile sudo with a default runas user other than root. 289) Add options to log the hostname in the file-based log and to not do word wrap in file-based log. From Theo Van Dinter 290) RedHat Linux pam support, from Gary Calvin . pam.sudo goes in /etc/pam.d/sudo on RedHat 5.0 and above. 291) With sudo -s, set command the full path of the shell, not the basename. Noted by Peter W. Osel Sudo 1.5.6 released. 292) Pam auth now runs as root; necessary for shadow passwords. 293) Shadow password support is now compiled in by default. You can disable it via --disable-shadow. 294) We now remove a timestamp file with a bogus date when it is detected. From Steve Fobes . 295) In tgetpass(), restart select if it is interrupted. This really fixes a problem where a user sometimes is not given a change to enter a password. 296) All options have moved from options.h -> configure. 297) visudo is now installed in /usr/local/sbin where it belongs. 298) Lots of configure changes. Instead of checking for the existence of -lsocket, -lnsl, or -linet, we instead check them for the functions we need only if they are not already in libc. 299) Added DUNIX SIA (Security Integration Architecture) support from Spider Boardman . 300) Added test for broken Digital UNIX 4.0 prot.h. 301) Better support for C2 security on Digital UNIX. 302) Hacked autoconf so that you have have single quotes in --with-passprompt. 303) For SecureWare-style shadow passwords use getprpwnam() instead of getprpwuid() since getprpwuid is broken in HP-UX 10.20 at least (it sleeps for 2 minutes if the shadow files don't exist). 304) We can't really trust UID_MAX or MAXUID since they may only exist for backwards compatibility; spider-both@Orb.Nashua.NH.US 305) Make %groups work as RunAs specifiers; Ray Bellis . 306) Set USER environment variable to target user. Suggested by Ray Bellis . 307) Go back to printing "command not found" unless --disable-path-info specified. Also, tell user when we ignore '.' in their path and it would have been used but for --with-ignore-dot. 308) When using tty tickets make it user:tty not user.tty as a username could have a '.' in it. 309) Define BSD_COMP for svr4 to get BSD ioctl defs. Also, if we have sys/sockio.h but SIOCGIFCONF is not defined by including sys/ioctl.h include sys/sockio.h directly. 310) Fixed a bug that could cause "sudo -l" to segfault or complain about non-existent syntax errors. Sudo 1.5.7 released. 311) Fixed square bracket quoting in configure and moved check for -lnsl to be before -lsocket. 312) In load_interfaces(), close sock after bwe are done with it. Leak noticed by Mike Kienenberger . 313) Missing pieces from change #308; from Mike Kienenberger. 314) Real Kerberos 5 support from Frank Cusack . 315) FWTK 'authsrv' support from Kevin Kadow . 316) Fixed handling and documentation of -with-umask. 317) If the check for socket() or inet_addr() fails, retry, this time linking with both -lsocket and -lnsl for those systems that have interlibrary dependencies. Sudo 1.5.8 released. 318) Add dirfd() macro for systems without it. 319) Better check for socket() in -lsocket -lnsl in configure. 320) Minor configure fixes. Sudo 1.5.8p1 released. 321) Fixed a bug wrt quoting characters in command args. 322) Make --without-sendmail work. Sudo 1.5.8p2 released. 323) Fixed a segv if HOST_IN_LOG defined and gethostbyname() fails. Reported by Gero Treuner . 324) Fixed a parse bug wrt the ! operator and runas specs. Noted by David A Beck . 325) Use new emalloc/erealloc/estrdup functions (catch errors and exit). 326) New PAM code that should work on both Solaris and Linux. 327) Make sudo's usage info better when mutually exclusive args are given and don't rely on argument order to detect this. From Nick Andrew. 328) In visudo, shift return value of system() by 8 to get the real exit value. Sudo 1.5.9 released. 329) The runas user and NOPASSWD tags are now persistent across entries in a command list (ie: cmnd1,cmnd2,cmnd3). A PASSWD tag has been added to reverse NOPASSWD. The runas user and *PASSWD tags can be overridden on a per-command basis at which point they become the new default for the rest of the list. 330) It is now possible to use the '!' operator in a runas list as well as in a Cmnd_Alias, Host_Alias and User_Alias. 331) In estrdup(), do the malloc ourselves so we don't need to rely on the system strdup(3) which may or may not exist. There is now no need to provide strdup() for those w/o it. 332) You can now specify a host list instead of just a host or alias in a privilege list. Ie: user=host1,host2,ALIAS,!host3 /bin/ls 333) Stash the "safe" path to the command instead of stashing the struct stat. Should be safer. 334) Now set $LOGNAME in addition to $USER. 335) No longer use stdio in tgetpass() 336) Don't use _PASSWD_LEN or PASS_MAX as we can't rely on them corresponding to anything real. Instead, we just use a max password size of 256 everywhere. 337) Block keyboard-generated signals during startup and restore signal mask before exec'ing the program. We don't want the user to be able to simply kill us and avoid logging. 338) Rewrote timestamp handling. For the default case, a directory is used instead of a file. For the tty-based case, the timestamp is just a file in that directory (eg. /var/run/sudo/username/tty). You now only get the lecture once, even in the tty case. The goal here is to allow the tty and non-tty schemes to coexist, though it is worth noting that when you update a tty file, the mtime of the dir gets updated too. 339) The meaning of -k has changed to mean "invalidate the timestamp". There is a new -K option to really remove the timestamp file/dir. 340) New modular authentication API. This fixes the rat's nest of #ifdefs that was the old auth code. 341) New logging functions. log_error() now takes a variable number of args ala printf() and log_auth() reacts to the return value of validate(). 342) If a user is not in the sudoers file they are still asked for a password. This keeps someone who finds a user logged in to a terminal from being able to tell whether or not the user is allowed to use sudo. 343) New PAM code again, this time it should be correct. 344) tgetpass() now has a flag to specify whether or not to turn off echo while reading the password. Used by the new PAM and fwtk code. 345) Fixed shadow password dectection on SCO. 346) Sudo is now available under a BSD/Apache style license. This is possible because it no longer contains any of the original 1.1 code. 347) Added configuration info when sudo is run with the -V flag by root. 348) Change visudo tmp file from /etc/stmp -> /etc/sudoers.tmp since Solaris uses stmp for shadow temp file. Also rename _PATH_SUDO_SUDOERS to _PATH_SUDOERS and _PATH_SUDO_STMP to _PATH_SUDOERS_TMP. 349) Added configure option to set syslog priorities. 350) Sudo now locks its log file to prevent mangled entries. 351) Visudo now locks the sudoers temp file instead of bailing when the temp file already exists. This fixes the problem of stale temp files but it does *require* that you not try to put the temp file in a world-writable directory. This shoud not be an issue as the temp file should live in the same dir as sudoers. 352) Fixed crypt() check in libufc. 353) It is now possible to put a list of users as the first thing in a user specification. I don't suggest this but it makes the grammar more uniform. 354) Visudo will now warn about what it thinks are undefined aliases. Since it can't be 100% sure these are just warnings, not errors. 355) Add a --without-passwd option to configure that turns off passwd/shadow file authentication. Only usable with an alternate authentication scheme. 356) Add a --disable-authentication option to configure that causes sudo to not require authentication by default. The PASSWD tag can be used to require authentication for an entry. 357) Add a --with-devel option to add -Wall and uncomment yacc/lex generation in Makefile. 358) Zero out plaintext password after use (should do encrypted as well). 359) Added real dependencies in Makefile. 360) Deprecated --with-otp-only in favor of --without-passwd. 361) Add --with-mail-if-no-host to send mail if a user tries to run sudo on a host for which he/she is not authorized. 362) Most of sudo now runs as root instead of the invoking user to minimize the possibility of user control via signals or tracing. 363) Now Support CIDR-style netmasks (ie: 128.138.0.0/16). 364) In "sudo -l" mode, the type of the stored (expanded) alias was not stored with the contents. This could lead to incorrect output if the sudoers file had different alias types with the same name. Normal parsing (ie: not in '-l' mode) is unaffected. 365) Now include strcasecmp() for those without it. 366) Most compile-time options are now changable at runtime via the 'Defaults' specification in the sudoers file. 367) Added a -L flag to printout all the possible 'Defaults' parameters. 368) It is now possible to escape "special" characters in usernames, hostnames, etc with a backslash. 369) Sudo will now accept a hostname/username/netgroupname that contains almost any character in it. It seems many people want to use '.' and other non-alphanumerics in usernames. 370) Fixed the root_sudo option. Sudo was always complaining that root was not allowed to run sudo if the root_sudo flag was turned off. 371) tgetpass() now uses a function to read up until the end of line. Fixes problems in a pipeline when a program sets the tty mode to be character at a time. 372) sudo now turns off core dumps via setrlimit (probably paranoia). Sudo 1.6 released. 373) Better diagnostics on PAM failure. 374) Killed shell_noargs option, it cannot work since the command needs to be set before sudoers is parsed. 375) Fixed the following Defaults options: set_home, fqdn, syslog, tty_tickets, ticket_dir, insults. 376) When using select() in tgetpass(), do a separate select before each read to be sure we can timeout correctly. 377) SecurID support compiles and works again. 378) Fixed a bug parsing runas modifiers. If a user spec contained multiple runas specs, the latter ones may not be applied. 379) #uid now works in a RunasAlias 380) Don't ask the user for a password if the user is not allowed to run the command and the authenticate flag (in sudoers) is false. 381) Added configure check for initgroups(3). 382) Use our own fnmatch() if there is no fnmatch.h, even if there is an fnmatch() in libc. Sudo 1.6.1 released. 383) Better behavior for -l and -v flags in conjunction with NOPASSWD and added "verifypw" and "listpw" options. 384) For HP-UX with cc, add the -Aa flag along with -D_HPUX_SOURCE. 385) Fix compilation with K&R compilers. 386) For netgroup host matching, match against the short version of the hostname as well as the long one if they are different. 387) Terminate passwd reading on '\r' in addition to '\n' 388) Visudo used to loop endlessly if a user entered ^D at the whatnow prompt. EOF is now treaded as 'x' (exit w/o saving changes). 389) The 'shell_noargs' runtime option is back based on a patch from bguillory@email.com. 390) Systems that return RLIM_INFINITY for RLIMIT_NOFILE (like AIX) would loop for a very loing time during sudo startup. A value of RLIM_INFINITY is now ignored (getdtablesize/sysconf is used instead). 391) Locking in visudo was broken. We now lock the sudoers file, not the sudoers temp file, which should be safe. 392) PAM fixups: custom prompts now work correctly and errors are dealt with more sanely. Patches from Cloyce D. Spradling. Sudo 1.6.2 released. 393) Users in the 'exempt' group shouldn't get their $PATH overridden by 'secure-path'. Patch from jmknoble@pobox.com. 394) Pam now works on HP-UX 11.0, thanks to Jeff A. Earickson. 395) Fixed a bug that caused an infinite loop when the password timeout was disabled. 396) It is now possible to set the path to the editor for visudo as well as the flag that determines whether or not visudo will look at $EDITOR in the sudoers file. 397) configure now pulls in the values of LIBS, LDFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, etc as the documentation says it ought to. 398) Added rootpw, runaspw, and targetpw to prompt for the root, runas_default and target user's passwords respectively (instead of the invoking user's password). 399) Added -S flag to force password read from stdin. 400) Restore coredumpsize resource limit before exec'ing the child process (sudo sets it to 0 internally). 401) Truncate unencrypted password to 8 chars if encrypted password is exactly 13 characters (indicateing standard a DES password). Many versions of crypt() do this for you, but not all (like HP-UX's). 402) Fixed a typo/thinko that broke secureware support for long passwords. 403) Added a new command line switch '-c' to support BSD login classes. The '-c' option can be used to sudo a command with specific resource limits in the login.conf database. This feature is optionally enabled via the --with-logincap configure switch. Based on a patch from Michael D. Marchionna. 404) Fixed a bug where sudo would hang around and consume CPU if we spawn a long-running process. 405) Deal with HP-UX password aging info tacked on to the end of the encrypted password. 406) Added set_logname run-time option. When unset, sudo will not set the USER and LOGNAME environment variables. 407) Wildcards are now allowed in the hostnames specified in sudoers. The 'fqdn' option is often required for this to be useful. 408) Fixed a bug where host and user qualifiers in a Defaults entry were not being used correctly and the entry was being applied globally. Sudo 1.6.3 released. 409) Fixed targetpw, rootpw, and runaspw options when used with non-passwd authentication (pam, etc). Sudo 1.6.3p1 released. 410) When the targetpw flag is set, use the target username as part of the timestamp path. Sudo 1.6.3p2 released. 411) Fixed a bug that prevented the -H option from being useful. Sudo 1.6.3p3 released. 412) Fixed a case where a string was used after it had been freed. Sudo 1.6.3p4 released. 413) Fixed listpw and verifypw sudoers options. 414) Do not write NUL when writing passwd prompt; hag@linnaean.org. Sudo 1.6.3p5 released. 415) Fix word splitting bug that caused a segv for very long command line args. Sudo 1.6.3p6 released. 416) Fix negation of path-type Defaults entries in a boolean context. Sudo 1.6.3p7 released. 417) Visudo now checks for the existence of an editor and gives a sensible error if it does not exist. 418) The path to the editor for visudo is now a colon-separated list of allowable editors. If the user has $EDITOR set and it matches one of the allowed editors that editor will be used. If not, the first editor that actually exists is used. 419) Visudo now does its own fork/exec instead of calling system(3). 420) Allow special characters (including '#') to be embedded in pathnames if quoted by a '\\'. The quoted chars will be dealt with by fnmatch(). Unfortunately, 'sudo -l' still prints the '\\'. 421) Added the always_set_home option. 422) Strip NLSPATH and PATH_LOCALE out from the environment to prevent reading of protected files by a less privileged user. 423) Added support for BSD authentication and associated -a flag. 424) Added check for _innetgr(3) since NCR systems have this instead of innetgr(3). 425) Added stay_setuid option for systems that have libraries that perform extra paranoia checks in system libraries for setuid programs. 426) Environment munging is now done by hand. The environment is zeroed upon sudo startup and a new environment is built before the command is executed. This means we don't rely on getenv(3), putenv(3), or setenv(3). 427) Added a class of environment variables that are only cleared if they contain '/' or '%' characters. 428) Use stashed user_gid when checking against exempt gid since sudo sets its gid to SUDOERS_GID, making getgid() return that, not the real gid. Fixes problem with setting exempt group == SUDOERS_GID. Fix from Paul Kranenburg. 429) Fixed file locking in visudo on NeXT which has a broken lockf(). Patch from twetzel@gwdg.de. 430) Regenerated configure script with autoconf-2.52 (required some tweaking of configure.in and friends). 431) Added mail_badpass option to send mail when the user does not authenticate successfully. 432) Added env_reset Defaults option to reset the environment to a clean slate. Also implemented env_keep Defaults option to specify variables to be preserved when resetting the environment. 433) Added env_check and env_delete Defaults options to allow the admin to modify the builtin list of environment variables to remove. 434) If timestamp_timeout < 0 then the timestamp never expires. This allows users to manage their own timestamps and create or delete them via 'sudo -v' and 'sudo -k' respectively. 435) Authentication routines that use sudo's tgetpass() now accept ^C or ^Z at the password prompt and sudo will act appropriately. 436) Added a check-only mode to visudo to check an existing sudoers file for sanity. 437) Visudo can now edit an alternate sudoers file. 438) If sudo is configured with S/Key support and the system has skeyaccess(3) use that to determine whether or not to allow a normal Unix password or just S/Key. 439) Fixed CIDR handling in sudoers. 440) Fixed a segv if the local hostname is not resolvable and the 'fqdn' option is set. 441) "listpw=never" was not having an effect for users who did not appear in sudoers--now it does. 442) The --without-sendmail option now works on systems with a /usr/include/paths.h file that defines _PATH_SENDMAIL. 443) Removed the "secure_path" Defaults option as it does not work and cannot work until the parser is overhauled. 444) Added new -P flag and "preserve_groups" sudoers option to cause sudo to preserve the group vector instead of setting it to that of the target user. Previously, if the target user was root the group vector was not changed. Now it is always changed unless the -P flag or "preserve_groups" option was given. 445) If find_path() fails as root, try again as the invoking user (useful for NFS). Idea from Chip Capelik. 446) Use setpwent()/endpwent() and its shadow equivalents to be sure the passwd/shadow file gets closed. 447) Use getifaddrs(3) to get the list of network interfaces if it is available. 448) Dump list of local IP addresses and environment variables to clear when 'sudo -V' is run as root. 449) Reorganized the lexer a bit and added more states. Sudo now does a better job of parsing command arguments in the sudoers file. 450) Wrap each call to syslog() with openlog()/closelog() since some things (such as PAM) may call closelog(3) behind sudo's back. 451) The LOGNAME and USER environment variables are now set if the user specified a target uid and that uid exists in the password database. 452) configure will no longer add the -g flag to CFLAGS by default. 453) Now call pam_setcreds() to setup creds for the target user when PAM is in use. On Linux this often sets resource limits. 454) If "make install" is run by non-root and the destination dir is writable, install things normally but don't set owner and mode. 455) The Makefile now supports installing in a shadow hierarchy specified via the DESTDIR variable. 456) config.h.in is now generated by autoheader. Sudo 1.6.4 released. 457) Move the call to rebuild_env() until after MODE_RESET_HOME is set. Otherwise, the set_home option has no effect. 458) Fix use of freed memory when the "fqdn" flag is set. This was introduced by the fix for the "segv when gethostbynam() fails" bug. 459) Add 'continue' statements to optimize the switch statement. From Solar Designer. Sudo 1.6.4p1 released. 460) Some special characters were not being escaped properly (e..g '\,') in command line arguments and would cause a syntax error instead. 461) "sudo -l" would not work if the always_set_home option was set. 462) Added a configure option to disable use of POSIX saved IDs for operating systems where these are broken. 463) The SHELL environment variable was preserved from the user's environment instead of being reset based on the passwd database even when the "env_reset" option was set. Sudo 1.6.4p2 released. 464) Added a configure option to cause mail sent by sudo to be run as the invoking user instead of root. Some people consider this to be safer. 465) If the mailer is being run as root, use a hard-coded environment that is not influenced in any way by the invoking user's environment. 466) Fixed the call to skeyaccess(). Patch from Phillip E. Lobbes. Sudo 1.6.5 released. 467) Visudo could access memory that was already freed. 468) If the skey.access file denied use of plaintext passwords sudo would exit instead of allowing the user to enter an S/Key. Sudo 1.6.5p1 released. 469) Older versions of BSDi have getifaddrs() but no freeifaddrs(). 470) BSDi has a fake setreuid() as do certain versions of FreeBSD and NetBSD. 471) Ignore the return value of pam_setcred(). In Linux-PAM 0.75, pam_setcred() will return PAM_PERM_DENIED even if the setcred function of the module succeeds when pam_authenticate() has not been called. 472) Avoid giving PAM a NULL password response, use the empty string instead. This avoids a log warning when the user hits ^C at the password prompt when Linux-PAM is in use. This also prevents older versions of Linux-PAM from dereferencing the NULL pointer. 473) The user's password was not zeroed after use when AIX authentication, BSD authentication, FWTK or PAM was in use. Sudo 1.6.5p2 released. 474) Fixed compilation problem on HP-UX 9.x. 475) Moved call to endpwent() and added a call to endgrent(). 476) Fixed a warning conflicting declaration of VOID with AFS. 477) Fixed a security hole in prompt rewriting found by Global InterSec. Sudo 1.6.6 released.
