Public bug reported: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Sudo 1.8.9p5-1ubuntu1
I'm having a problem using a numeric userid match in the sudoers file. I have the following in my sudoers file: User_Alias testuid = "#1000" testuid ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/id However my user with uid 1000 is not allowed to run the command, its not listed in sudo -l I've reported this bug upstream earlier: http://www.sudo.ws/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=640 The commit that fixes it: http://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/rev/315eff4add59 It is a regression introduced in sudo 1.8.9 and is present in Trusty and Utopic. Users might hit this issue if they upgrade from older ubuntu releases and use numeric uid match in sudoers file. ** Affects: sudo (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1321299 Title: uid match no longer working in sudoers file on 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sudo/+bug/1321299/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
