|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
The \fIsudoers\fR file is composed two types of entries:
|
|
aliases (basically variables) and user specifications
|
|
(which specify who may run what). The grammar of \fIsudoers\fR
|
|
will be described below in Extended Backus-Naur Form (EBNF).
|
|
Don't despair if you don't know what EBNF is, it is fairly
|
|
simple and the definitions below are annotated.
|
|
.Sh "Quick guide to \s-1EBNF\s0"
|
|
\s-1EBNF\s0 is a concise and exact way of describing the grammar of a language.
|
|
Each \s-1EBNF\s0 definition is made up of \fIproduction rules\fR. Eg.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& symbol ::= definition | alternate1 | alternate2 ...
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Each \fIproduction rule\fR references others and thus makes up a
|
|
grammar for the language. \s-1EBNF\s0 also contains the following
|
|
operators, which many readers will recognize from regular
|
|
expressions. Do not, however, confuse them with \*(L"wildcard\*(R"
|
|
characters, which have different meanings.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW?\fR" 8
|
|
Means that the preceding symbol (or group of symbols) is optional.
|
|
That is, it may appear once or not at all.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW*\fR" 8
|
|
Means that the preceding symbol (or group of symbols) may appear
|
|
zero or more times.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW+\fR" 8
|
|
Means that the preceding symbol (or group of symbols) may appear
|
|
one or more times.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Parentheses may be used to group symbols together. For clarity,
|
|
we will use single quotes ('') to designate what is a verbatim character
|
|
string (as opposed to a symbol name).
|
|
.Sh "Aliases"
|
|
There are four kinds of aliases: the \f(CWUser_Alias\fR, \f(CWRunas_Alias\fR,
|
|
\f(CWHost_Alias\fR and \f(CWCmnd_Alias\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 4
|
|
\& Alias ::= 'User_Alias' = User_Alias (':' User_Alias)* |
|
|
\& 'Runas_Alias' = Runas_Alias (':' Runas_Alias)* |
|
|
\& 'Host_Alias' = Host_Alias (':' Host_Alias)* |
|
|
\& 'Cmnd_Alias' = Cmnd_Alias (':' Cmnd_Alias)*
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& User_Alias ::= NAME '=' User_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Runas_Alias ::= NAME '=' Runas_User_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Host_Alias ::= NAME '=' Host_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Cmnd_Alias ::= NAME '=' Cmnd_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& NAME ::= [A-Z]([A-Z][0-9]_)*
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Each \fIalias\fR definition is of the form
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Alias_Type NAME = item1, item2, ...
|
|
.Ve
|
|
where \fIAlias_Type\fR is one of \f(CWUser_Alias\fR, \f(CWRunas_Alias\fR, \f(CWHost_Alias\fR,
|
|
or \f(CWCmnd_Alias\fR. A \f(CWNAME\fR is a string of upper case letters, numbers,
|
|
and the underscore characters ('_'). A \f(CWNAME\fR \fBmust\fR start with an
|
|
upper case letter. It is possible to put several alias definitions
|
|
of the same type on a single line, joined by a semicolon (':'). Eg.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Alias_Type NAME = item1, item2, item3 : NAME = item4, item5
|
|
.Ve
|
|
The definitions of what constitutes a valid \fIalias\fR member follow.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& User_List ::= User |
|
|
\& User ',' User_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 5
|
|
\& User ::= '!'* username |
|
|
\& '!'* '#'uid |
|
|
\& '!'* '%'group |
|
|
\& '!'* '+'netgroup |
|
|
\& '!'* User_Alias
|
|
.Ve
|
|
A \f(CWUser_List\fR is made up of one or more usernames, uids
|
|
(prefixed with \*(L'#'), System groups (prefixed with \*(L'%'),
|
|
netgroups (prefixed with \*(L'+') and other aliases. Each list
|
|
item may be prefixed with one or more \*(L'!\*(R' operators. An odd number
|
|
of \*(L'!\*(R' operators negates the value of the item; an even number
|
|
just cancel each other out.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& Runas_List ::= Runas_User |
|
|
\& Runas_User ',' Runas_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 5
|
|
\& Runas_User ::= '!'* username |
|
|
\& '!'* '#'uid |
|
|
\& '!'* '%'group |
|
|
\& '!'* +netgroup |
|
|
\& '!'* Runas_Alias
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Likewise, a \f(CWRunas_List\fR has the same possible elements
|
|
as a \f(CWUser_List\fR, except that it can include a \f(CWRunas_Alias\fR,
|
|
instead of a \f(CWUser_Alias\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& Host_List ::= Host |
|
|
\& Host ',' Host_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 5
|
|
\& Host ::= '!'* hostname |
|
|
\& '!'* ip_addr |
|
|
\& '!'* network(/netmask)? |
|
|
\& '!'* '+'netgroup |
|
|
\& '!'* Host_Alias
|
|
.Ve
|
|
A \f(CWHost_List\fR is made up of one or more hostnames, \s-1IP\s0 addresses,
|
|
network numbers, netgroups (prefixed with \*(L'+') and other aliases.
|
|
Again, the value of an item may be negated with the \*(L'!\*(R' operator.
|
|
If you do not specify a netmask with a network number, the netmask
|
|
of the host's ethernet \fIinterface\fR\|(s) will be used when matching.
|
|
The netmask may be specified either in dotted quad notation (eg.
|
|
255.255.255.0) or \s-1CIDR\s0 notation (number of bits, eg. 24). A hostname
|
|
may include shell-style wildcards (see `Wildcards\*(R' section below),
|
|
but unless the \f(CWhostname\fR command on your machine returns the fully
|
|
qualified hostname, you'll need to use the \fIfqdn\fR option for wildcards
|
|
to be useful.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 2
|
|
\& Cmnd_List ::= Cmnd |
|
|
\& Cmnd ',' Cmnd_List
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 3
|
|
\& commandname ::= filename |
|
|
\& filename args |
|
|
\& filename '""'
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 3
|
|
\& Cmnd ::= '!'* commandname |
|
|
\& '!'* directory |
|
|
\& '!'* Cmnd_Alias
|
|
.Ve
|
|
A \f(CWCmnd_List\fR is a list of one or more commandnames, directories, and other
|
|
aliases. A commandname is a fully qualified filename which may include
|
|
shell-style wildcards (see `Wildcards\*(R' section below). A simple
|
|
filename allows the user to run the command with any arguments he/she
|
|
wishes. However, you may also command line arguments (including wildcards).
|
|
Alternately, you can specify \f(CW""\fR to indicate that the command
|
|
may only be run \fBwithout\fR command line arguments. A directory is a
|
|
fully qualified pathname ending in a \*(L'/\*(R'. When you specify a directory
|
|
in a \f(CWCmnd_List\fR, the user will be able to run any file within that directory
|
|
(but not in any subdirectories therein).
|
|
.PP
|
|
If a \f(CWCmnd\fR has associated command line arguments, then the arguments
|
|
in the \f(CWCmnd\fR must match exactly those given by the user on the command line
|
|
(or match the wildcards if there are any). Note that the following
|
|
characters must be escaped with a \*(L'\e\*(R' if they are used in command
|
|
arguments: \*(L',\*(R', \*(L':\*(R', \*(L'=\*(R', \*(L'\e\*(R'.
|
|
.Sh "Defaults"
|
|
Certain configuration options may be changed from their default
|
|
values at runtime via one or more \f(CWDefault_Entry\fR lines. These
|
|
may affect all users on any host, all users on a specific host,
|
|
or just a specific user. When multiple entries match, they are
|
|
applied in order. Where there are conflicting values, the last
|
|
value on a matching line takes effect.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 3
|
|
\& Default_Type ::= 'Defaults' ||
|
|
\& 'Defaults' ':' User ||
|
|
\& 'Defaults' '@' Host
|
|
.Ve
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& Default_Entry ::= Default_Type Parameter_List

.Ve
|

.Vb 2

.Ve
|
|
Parameters may be \fBflags\fR, \fBinteger\fR values, or \fBstrings\fR. Flags
|
|
are implicitly boolean and can be turned off via the \*(L'!\*(R' operator.
|
|
Some integer and string parameters may also be used in a boolean
|
|
context to disable them. Values may be enclosed in double quotes
|
|
(\f(CW"\fR) when they contain multiple words. Special characters may
|
|
be escaped with a backslash (\f(CW\e\fR).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBFlags\fR:
|
|
.Ip "long_otp_prompt" 12
|
|
When validating with a One Time Password scheme (\fBS/Key\fR or \fB\s-1OPIE\s0\fR),
|
|
a two-line prompt is used to make it easier to cut and paste the
|
|
challenge to a local window. It's not as pretty as the default but
|
|
some people find it more convenient. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "ignore_dot" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will ignore \*(L'.\*(R' or \*(L'\*(R' (current dir) in \f(CW$PATH\fR;
|
|
the \f(CW$PATH\fR itself is not modified. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "mail_always" 12
|
|
Send mail to the \fImailto\fR user every time a users runs \fBsudo\fR.
|
|
This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "mail_no_user" 12
|
|
If set, mail will be sent to the \fImailto\fR user if the invoking
|
|
user is not in the \fIsudoers\fR file. This flag is on by default.
|
|
.Ip "mail_no_host" 12
|
|
If set, mail will be sent to the \fImailto\fR user if the invoking
|
|
user exists in the \fIsudoers\fR file, but is not allowed to run
|
|
commands on the current host. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "mail_no_perms" 12
|
|
If set, mail will be sent to the \fImailto\fR user if the invoking
|
|
user allowed to use \fBsudo\fR but the command they are trying is not
|
|
listed in their \fIsudoers\fR file entry. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "tty_tickets" 12
|
|
If set, users must authenticate on a per-tty basis. Normally,
|
|
\fBsudo\fR uses a directory in the ticket dir with the same name as
|
|
the user running it. With this flag enabled, \fBsudo\fR will use a
|
|
file named for the tty the user is logged in on in that directory.
|
|
This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "lecture" 12
|
|
If set, a user will receive a short lecture the first time he/she
|
|
runs \fBsudo\fR. This flag is on by default.
|
|
.Ip "authenticate" 12
|
|
If set, users must authenticate themselves via a password (or other
|
|
means of authentication) before they may run commands. This default
|
|
may be overridden via the \f(CWPASSWD\fR and \f(CWNOPASSWD\fR tags.
|
|
This flag is on by default.
|
|
.Ip "root_sudo" 12
|
|
If set, root is allowed to run \fBsudo\fR too. Disabling this prevents users
|
|
from \*(L"chaining\*(R" \fBsudo\fR commands to get a root shell by doing something
|
|
like \f(CW"sudo sudo /bin/sh"\fR.
|
|
This flag is on by default.
|
|
.Ip "log_host" 12
|
|
If set, the hostname will be logged in the (non-syslog) \fBsudo\fR log file.
|
|
This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "log_year" 12
|
|
If set, the four-digit year will be logged in the (non-syslog) \fBsudo\fR log file.
|
|
This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "shell_noargs" 12
|
|
If set and \fBsudo\fR is invoked with no arguments it acts as if the
|
|
\f(CW-s\fR flag had been given. That is, it runs a shell as root (the
|
|
shell is determined by the \f(CWSHELL\fR environment variable if it is
|
|
set, falling back on the shell listed in the invoking user's
|
|
/etc/passwd entry if not). This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "set_home" 12
|
|
If set and \fBsudo\fR is invoked with the \f(CW-s\fR flag the \f(CWHOME\fR
|
|
environment variable will be set to the home directory of the target
|
|
user (which is root unless the \f(CW-u\fR option is used). This effectively
|
|
makes the \f(CW-s\fR flag imply \f(CW-H\fR. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "path_info" 12
|
|
Normally, \fBsudo\fR will tell the user when a command could not be
|
|
found in their \f(CW$PATH\fR. Some sites may wish to disable this as
|
|
it could be used to gather information on the location of executables
|
|
that the normal user does not have access to. The disadvantage is
|
|
that if the executable is simply not in the user's \f(CW$PATH\fR, \fBsudo\fR
|
|
will tell the user that they are not allowed to run it, which can
|
|
be confusing. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "fqdn" 12
|
|
Set this flag if you want to put fully qualified hostnames in the
|
|
\fIsudoers\fR file. Ie: instead of myhost you would use myhost.mydomain.edu.
|
|
You may still use the short form if you wish (and even mix the two).
|
|
Beware that turning on \fIfqdn\fR requires \fBsudo\fR to make \s-1DNS\s0 lookups
|
|
which may make \fBsudo\fR unusable if \s-1DNS\s0 stops working (for example
|
|
if the machine is not plugged into the network). Also note that
|
|
you must use the host's official name as \s-1DNS\s0 knows it. That is,
|
|
you may not use a host alias (\f(CWCNAME\fR entry) due to performance
|
|
issues and the fact that there is no way to get all aliases from
|
|
\s-1DNS\s0. If your machine's hostname (as returned by the \f(CWhostname\fR
|
|
command) is already fully qualified you shouldn't need to set
|
|
\fIfqfn\fR. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "insults" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will insult users when they enter an incorrect
|
|
password. This flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "requiretty" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will only run when the user is logged in to a real
|
|
tty. This will disallow things like \f(CW"rsh somehost sudo ls"\fR since
|
|
\fIrsh\fR\|(1) does not allocate a tty. Because it is not possible to turn
|
|
of echo when there is no tty present, some sites may with to set
|
|
this flag to prevent a user from entering a visible password. This
|
|
flag is off by default.
|
|
.Ip "env_editor" 12
|
|
If set, \fBvisudo\fR will use the value of the \s-1EDITOR\s0 or \s-1VISUAL\s0 environment
|
|
falling back on the default editor. Note that this may create a
|
|
security hole as most editors allow a user to get a shell (which
|
|
would be a root shell and not be logged).
|
|
.Ip "rootpw" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will prompt for the root password instead of the password
|
|
of the invoking user.
|
|
.Ip "runaspw" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will prompt for the password of the user defined by the
|
|
\fIrunas_default\fR option (defaults to root) instead of the password
|
|
of the invoking user.
|
|
.Ip "targetpw" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will prompt for the password of the user specified by
|
|
the \f(CW-u\fR flag (defaults to root) instead of the password of the
|
|
invoking user.
|
|
.Ip "set_logname" 12
|
|
Normally, \fBsudo\fR will set the \f(CWLOGNAME\fR and \f(CWUSER\fR environment variables
|
|
to the name of the target user (usually root unless the \f(CW-u\fR flag is given).
|
|
However, since some programs (including the \s-1RCS\s0 revision control system)
|
|
use \f(CWLOGNAME\fR to determine the real identity of the user, it may be desirable
|
|
to change this behavior. This can be done by negating the set_logname option.
|
|
.Ip "use_loginclass" 12
|
|
If set, \fBsudo\fR will apply the defaults specified for the target user's
|
|
login class if one exists. Only available if \fBsudo\fR is configured with
|
|
the --with-logincap option.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBIntegers\fR:
|
|
.Ip "passwd_tries" 12
|

|
\fBsudo\fR logs the failure and exits. The default is 3.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBIntegers that can be used in a boolean context\fR:
|
|
.Ip "loglinelen" 12
|
|
Number of characters per line for the file log. This value is used
|
|
to decide when to wrap lines for nicer log files. This has no
|
|
effect on the syslog log file, only the file log. The default is
|
|
80 (use 0 or negate to disable word wrap).
|
|
.Ip "timestamp_timeout" 12
|
|
Number of minutes that can elapse before \fBsudo\fR will ask for a passwd
|
|
again. The default is 5, set this to 0 to always prompt for a password.
|
|
.Ip "passwd_timeout" 12
|
|
Number of minutes before the \fBsudo\fR password prompt times out.
|
|
The default is 5, set this to 0 for no password timeout.
|
|
.Ip "umask" 12
|
|
Umask to use when running the root command. Set this to 0777 to
|
|
not override the user's umask. The default is 0022.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBStrings\fR:
|

|
|
Default is \*(L"*** \s-1SECURITY\s0 information for \f(CW%h\fR ***\*(R".
|
|
.Ip "badpass_message" 12

The default is \*(L"Sorry, try again.\*(R" unless insults are enabled.
|
|
.Ip "timestampdir" 12
|
|
The directory in which \fBsudo\fR stores its timestamp files.
|
|
The default is \fI@\s-1TIMEDIR\s0@\fR.
|
|
.Ip "passprompt" 12
|
|
The default prompt to use when asking for a password; can be overridden
|
|
via the \f(CW-p\fR option or the \f(CWSUDO_PROMPT\fR environment variable. Supports
|
|
two escapes: \*(L"%u\*(R" expands to the user's login name and \*(L"%h\*(R" expands
|
|
to the local hostname. The default value is \*(L"Password:\*(R".
|
|
.Ip "runas_default" 12
|
|
The default user to run commands as if the \f(CW-u\fR flag is not specified
|
|
on the command line. This defaults to \*(L"root\*(R".
|
|
.Ip "syslog_goodpri" 12
|
|
Syslog priority to use when user authenticates successfully.
|
|
Defaults to \*(L"notice\*(R".
|
|
.Ip "syslog_badpri" 12
|
|
Syslog priority to use when user authenticates unsuccessfully.
|
|
Defaults to \*(L"alert\*(R".
|

|
|
\fBStrings that can be used in a boolean context\fR:
|
|
.Ip "logfile" 12
|
|
Path to the \fBsudo\fR log file (not the syslog log file). Setting a path
|
|
turns on logging to a file, negating this option turns it off.
|
|
.Ip "syslog" 12
|
|
Syslog facility if syslog is being used for logging (negate to
|
|
disable syslog logging). Defaults to \*(L"local2\*(R".
|
|
.Ip "mailerpath" 12
|
|
Path to mail program used to send warning mail.
|
|
Defaults to the path to sendmail found at configure time.

|
Users in this group are exempt from password and \s-1PATH\s0 requirements.
|
|
This is not set by default.
|

.Ip "secure_path" 12
|
|
Path used for every command run from \fBsudo\fR. If you don't trust the

|
people running \fBsudo\fR to have a sane \f(CWPATH\fR environment variable you may
|
|
want to use this. Another use is if you want to have the \*(L"root path\*(R"
|
|
be separate from the \*(L"user path.\*(R" This is not set by default.
|

.Ip "verifypw" 12

A \fBuser specification\fR determines which commands a user may run
|
|
(and as what user) on specified hosts. By default, commands are
|
|
run as \fBroot\fR but this can be changed on a per-command basis.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Let's break that down into its constituent parts:
|
|
.Sh "Runas_Spec"
|
|
A \f(CWRunas_Spec\fR is simply a \f(CWRunas_List\fR (as defined above)
|
|
enclosed in a set of parentheses. If you do not specify a
|
|
\f(CWRunas_Spec\fR in the user specification, a default \f(CWRunas_Spec\fR
|
|
of \fBroot\fR will be used. A \f(CWRunas_Spec\fR sets the default for
|
|
commands that follow it. What this means is that for the entry:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& dgb boulder = (operator) /bin/ls, /bin/kill, /usr/bin/who
|
|
.Ve
|
|
The user \fBdgb\fR may run \fI/bin/ls\fR, \fI/bin/kill\fR, and
|
|
\fI/usr/bin/lprm\fR -- but only as \fBoperator\fR. Eg.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& sudo -u operator /bin/ls.
|
|
.Ve
|
|
It is also possible to override a \f(CWRunas_Spec\fR later on in an
|
|
entry. If we modify the entry like so:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& dgb boulder = (operator) /bin/ls, (root) /bin/kill, /usr/bin/lprm
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Then user \fBdgb\fR is now allowed to run \fI/bin/ls\fR as \fBoperator\fR,
|
|
but \fI/bin/kill\fR and \fI/usr/bin/lprm\fR as \fBroot\fR.
|
|
.Sh "\s-1NOPASSWD\s0 and \s-1PASSWD\s0"
|
|
By default, \fBsudo\fR requires that a user authenticate him or herself
|
|
before running a command. This behavior can be modified via the
|
|
\f(CWNOPASSWD\fR tag. Like a \f(CWRunas_Spec\fR, the \f(CWNOPASSWD\fR tag sets
|
|
a default for the commands that follow it in the \f(CWCmnd_Spec_List\fR.
|
|
Conversely, the \f(CWPASSWD\fR tag can be used to reverse things.
|
|
For example:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& ray rushmore = NOPASSWD: /bin/kill, /bin/ls, /usr/bin/lprm
|
|
.Ve
|
|
would allow the user \fBray\fR to run \fI/bin/kill\fR, \fI/bin/ls\fR, and
|
|
\fI/usr/bin/lprm\fR as root on the machine rushmore as \fBroot\fR without
|
|
authenticating himself. If we only want \fBray\fR to be able to
|
|
run \fI/bin/kill\fR without a password the entry would be:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& ray rushmore = NOPASSWD: /bin/kill, PASSWD: /bin/ls, /usr/bin/lprm
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Note however, that the \f(CWPASSWD\fR tag has no effect on users who are
|
|
in the group specified by the exempt_group option.
|
|
.PP
|
|
By default, if the \f(CWNOPASSWD\fR tag is applied to any of the entries
|
|
for a user on the current host, he or she will be able to run
|
|
\f(CWsudo -l\fR without a password. Additionally, a user may only run
|
|
\f(CWsudo -v\fR without a password if the \f(CWNOPASSWD\fR tag is present
|
|
for all a user's entries that pertain to the current host.
|
|
This behavior may be overridden via the verifypw and listpw options.
|
|
.Sh "Wildcards (aka meta characters):"
|
|
\fBsudo\fR allows shell-style \fIwildcards\fR to be used in pathnames
|
|
as well as command line arguments in the \fIsudoers\fR file. Wildcard
|
|
matching is done via the \fB\s-1POSIX\s0\fR \f(CWfnmatch(3)\fR routine. Note that
|
|
these are \fInot\fR regular expressions.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW*\fR" 8
|
|
Matches any set of zero or more characters.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW?\fR" 8
|
|
Matches any single character.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW[...]\fR" 8
|
|
Matches any character in the specified range.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW[!...]\fR" 8
|
|
Matches any character \fBnot\fR in the specified range.
|
|
.Ip "\f(CW\ex\fR" 8
|
|
For any character \*(L"x\*(R", evaluates to \*(L"x\*(R". This is used to
|
|
escape special characters such as: \*(L"*\*(R", \*(L"?\*(R", \*(L"[\*(R", and \*(L"}\*(R".
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that a forward slash ('/') will \fBnot\fR be matched by
|
|
wildcards used in the pathname. When matching the command
|
|
line arguments, however, as slash \fBdoes\fR get matched by
|
|
wildcards. This is to make a path like:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& /usr/bin/*
|
|
.Ve
|
|
match \f(CW/usr/bin/who\fR but not \f(CW/usr/bin/X11/xterm\fR.
|
|
.Sh "Exceptions to wildcard rules:"
|
|
The following exceptions apply to the above rules:
|
|
.Ip \f(CW""\fR 8
|
|
If the empty string \f(CW""\fR is the only command line argument in the
|
|
\fIsudoers\fR entry it means that command is not allowed to be run
|
|
with \fBany\fR arguments.
|
|
.Sh "Other special characters and reserved words:"
|
|
The pound sign ('#') is used to indicate a comment (unless it
|
|
occurs in the context of a user name and is followed by one or
|
|
more digits, in which case it is treated as a uid). Both the
|
|
comment character and any text after it, up to the end of the line,
|
|
are ignored.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The reserved word \fB\s-1ALL\s0\fR is a built in \fIalias\fR that always causes
|
|
a match to succeed. It can be used wherever one might otherwise
|
|
use a \f(CWCmnd_Alias\fR, \f(CWUser_Alias\fR, \f(CWRunas_Alias\fR, or \f(CWHost_Alias\fR.
|
|
You should not try to define your own \fIalias\fR called \fB\s-1ALL\s0\fR as the
|
|
built in alias will be used in preference to your own. Please note
|
|
that using \fB\s-1ALL\s0\fR can be dangerous since in a command context, it
|
|
allows the user to run \fBany\fR command on the system.
|
|
.PP
|
|
An exclamation point (\*(R'!') can be used as a logical \fInot\fR operator
|
|
both in an \fIalias\fR and in front of a \f(CWCmnd\fR. This allows one to
|
|
exclude certain values. Note, however, that using a \f(CW!\fR in
|
|
conjunction with the built in \f(CWALL\fR alias to allow a user to
|
|
run \*(L"all but a few\*(R" commands rarely works as intended (see \s-1SECURITY\s0

It is generally not effective to \*(L"subtract\*(R" commands from \f(CWALL\fR
|
|
using the \*(L'!\*(R' operator. A user can trivially circumvent this
|
|
by copying the desired command to a different name and then
|
|
executing that. For example:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.Vb 1
|
|
\& bill ALL = ALL, !SU, !SHELLS
|
|
.Ve
|
|
Doesn't really prevent \fBbill\fR from running the commands listed in
|
|
\fISU\fR or \fISHELLS\fR since he can simply copy those commands to a
|
|
different name, or use a shell escape from an editor or other
|
|
program. Therefore, these kind of restrictions should be considered
|
|
advisory at best (and reinforced by policy).
|
|
.SH "CAVEATS"
|
|
The \fIsudoers\fR file should \fBalways\fR be edited by the \fBvisudo\fR
|
|
command which locks the file and does grammatical checking. It is

imperative that \fIsudoers\fR be free of syntax errors since \fBsudo\fR

will not run with a syntactically incorrect \fIsudoers\fR file.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When using netgroups of machines (as opposed to users), if you
|
|
store fully qualified hostnames in the netgroup (as is usually the
|
|
case), you either need to have the machine's hostname be fully qualified
|
|
as returned by the \f(CWhostname\fR command or use the \fIfqdn\fR option in

\fIsudoers\fR.
