| Adam Jackson | 2019-07-23 15:44:32 UTC | Doc Text | Cause: 'sudo' does not preserve the user's environment in the spawned subprocess, including information about how to connect to the graphical display. Consequence: Graphical applications may fail to launch with an error saying "No protocol specified" or "connection refused". Workaround (if any): Export the user's environment to the subprocess by running "sudo -E" instead of plain "sudo". Result: Graphical applications can run as a privileged user. | |
