Overview
Request 121250 accepted
- update to 1.8.5
Some of the changes:
* /etc/environment is no longer read directly on Linux systems when
PAM is used. Sudo now merges the PAM environment into the user's
environment which is typically set by the pam_env module.
* The plugin API has been extended
* The policy plugin's init_session function is now called by the
parent sudo process, not the child process that executes the command
This allows the PAM session to be open and closed in the same process,
which some PAM modules require.
* A new group provider plugin, system_group, is included
* Fixed a potential security issue in the matching of hosts against
an IPv4 network specified in sudoers.The flaw may allow a user who
is authorized to run commands on hosts belonging to one IPv4
network to run commands on a different host (CVE-2012-2337) (forwarded request 121223 from vitezslav_cizek)
