Description jcastran 2023-08-04 18:44:15 UTC
Description of problem:
When you use a valid configuration option, but use lower case. visudo accepts this but sudo does not work.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sudo-1.8.29-10.el8.x86_64



Steps to Reproduce:
1. visudo 
2. user All=(ALL) ALL
3. visudo saves but this is incorrect syntax.


Actual results:
[user@r8 ~]$ sudo echo hi
user is not allowed to run sudo on r8.  This incident will be reported.


Expected results:
This should prevent invalid lower case characters.

# visudo
>>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error near line 101 <<<
What now?
