Description

Hello,

I'm use technique sudoers and when a user modify on the server /etc/sudoers with visudo, rudder add new line for this user and not repair or delete the other line of this user.

For example if i'm change line Debian-snmp on node and run again rudder agent i've two line :

Debian-snmp    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/apt-get --simulate upgrade, /bin/grep, /bin/wget
Debian-snmp    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/apt-get --simulate upgrade, /bin/grep, /usr/bin/mailq

If i'm read the description of technique :

  • This technique configures the sudo utility. It will ensure that the defined rights for given users and groups are correctly defined.

it does not seem to be really that :)

Technique name
Sudoers version 3.0

Hum. The underlying implementation make that hard, and we fear that the technique need to be changed a lot to correct the underlying problem (use a template based approach? Add an "that user must have exactly that right an no other line" option?)
