Description Karel Srot 2016-02-19 06:41:55 UTC
This is actually present also on RHEL-6, confirmed with sudo-1.8.6p3-20.el6_7.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1297062 +++

Description of problem:
We have following defined in /etc/sudoers file 

Cmnd_Alias CMDS0 = /bb/sys/package/c/console/current/bb/bin/console
Defaults!CMDS0 closefrom_override

But it seems closefrom_override is not being respected in rhel7.2 (3.10.0-327.3.1.el7.x86_64). The same sudoers file work fine in rhel6.x.

Following error comes when user tries to run the command

sudo: you are not permitted to use the -C option
sudo: you are not permitted to use the -C option

Version of sudo

pny-comdb2lnx4 /root # rpm -qa|grep sudo
sudo-1.8.6p7-16.el7.x86_64

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sudo-1.8.6p7-16.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Works on RHEL 6, but not on RHEL 7.2


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
sudo: you are not permitted to use the -C option
sudo: you are not permitted to use the -C option
