Jakub Hrozek 2016-10-07 09:28:32 UTC Doc Text Cause: In sssd versions up to 7.2, when sssd was configured to fetch sudo rules from an Active Directory server, the sudoUser attribute had to match the exact case of the samAccountName attribute of the user who was assigned to the rule. (For example, Administrator). In 7.3, we broke that assertion and the sudoUser attribute value now matches only case-insensitive.

Consequence: After a package upgrade to 7.3, sudo rules for users who use a mIxEd case samaccountname attribute value.

Workaround (if any): The only workaround is to rename the sudoUser attribute to be lowercased.

Result: After upgrading sssd to 7.3, sudo rules that specify a sudoUser with a mixed case no longer work.

SSSD only applies values in `sudoUser` attributes from AD in lower case

Previously, when the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) fetched "sudo" rules from Active Directory (AD), the `sudoUser` attribute must have match the exact case of the `samAccountName` attribute of the user the rule was assigned to. Due to a regression in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3, the `sudoUser` attribute now only matches lower case values. To work around this problem, rename `sudoUser` attribute values to lower case. With the workaround, "sudo" rules are applied correctly.
