sudoers.ldap - sudo LDAP configuration

=head1 DESCRIPTION

In addition to the standard I<sudoers> file, B<sudo> may be configured
via LDAP.  This can be especially useful for synchronizing I<sudoers>
in a large, distributed environment.

Using LDAP for I<sudoers> has several benefits:

=over 4

=item *

B<sudo> no longer needs to read I<sudoers> in its entirety.  When
LDAP is used, there are only two or three LDAP queries per invocation.
This makes it especially fast and particularly usable in LDAP
environments.

=item *

B<sudo> no longer exits if there is a typo in I<sudoers>.
It is not possible to load LDAP data into the server that does
not conform to the sudoers schema, so proper syntax is guaranteed.
It is still possible to have typos in a user or host name, but
this will not prevent B<sudo> from running.

=item *

It is possible to specify per-entry options that override the global
default options.  F<@sysconfdir@/sudoers> only supports default options and
limited options associated with user/host/commands/aliases.  The
syntax is complicated and can be difficult for users to understand.
Placing the options directly in the entry is more natural.

=item *

The B<visudo> program is no longer needed.  B<visudo> provides
locking and syntax checking of the F<@sysconfdir@/sudoers> file.
Since LDAP updates are atomic, locking is no longer necessary.
Because syntax is checked when the data is inserted into LDAP, there
is no need for a specialized tool to check syntax.

=back

Another major difference between LDAP and file-based I<sudoers>
is that in LDAP, B<sudo>-specific Aliases are not supported.

For the most part, there is really no need for B<sudo>-specific
Aliases.  Unix groups or user netgroups can be used in place of
User_Aliases and Runas_Aliases.  Host netgroups can be used in place
of Host_Aliases.  Since Unix groups and netgroups can also be stored
in LDAP there is no real need for B<sudo>-specific aliases.

Cmnd_Aliases are not really required either since it is possible
to have multiple users listed in a C<sudoRole>.  Instead of defining
a Cmnd_Alias that is referenced by multiple users, one can create
a C<sudoRole> that contains the commands and assign multiple users
to it.

=head2 SUDOers LDAP container

The I<sudoers> configuration is contained in the C<ou=SUDOers> LDAP
container.

Sudo first looks for the C<cn=default> entry in the SUDOers container.
If found, the multi-valued C<sudoOption> attribute is parsed in the
same manner as a global C<Defaults> line in F<@sysconfdir@/sudoers>.  In
the following example, the C<SSH_AUTH_SOCK> variable will be preserved
in the environment for all users.

    dn: cn=defaults,ou=SUDOers,dc=example,dc=com
    objectClass: top
    objectClass: sudoRole
    cn: defaults
    description: Default sudoOption's go here
    sudoOption: env_keep+=SSH_AUTH_SOCK
 
The equivalent of a sudoer in LDAP is a C<sudoRole>.  It consists of
the following attributes:

=over 4

=item B<sudoUser>

A user name, uid (prefixed with C<'#'>), Unix group (prefixed with
a C<'%'>) or user netgroup (prefixed with a C<'+'>).

=item B<sudoHost>

A host name, IP address, IP network, or host netgroup (prefixed
with a C<'+'>).
The special value C<ALL> will match any host.

=item B<sudoCommand>

A Unix command with optional command line arguments, potentially
including globbing characters (aka wild cards).
The special value C<ALL> will match any command.
If a command is prefixed with an exclamation point C<'!'>, the
user will be prohibited from running that command.

=item B<sudoOption>

Identical in function to the global options described above, but
specific to the C<sudoRole> in which it resides.

=item B<sudoRunAsUser>

A user name or uid (prefixed with C<'#'>) that commands may be run
as or a Unix group (prefixed with a C<'%'>) or user netgroup (prefixed
with a C<'+'>) that contains a list of users that commands may be
run as.
The special value C<ALL> will match any user.

The C<sudoRunAsUser> attribute is only available in B<sudo> versions
1.7.0 and higher.  Older versions of B<sudo> use the C<sudoRunAs>
attribute instead.

=item B<sudoRunAsGroup>

A Unix group or gid (prefixed with C<'#'>) that commands may be run as.
The special value C<ALL> will match any group.

The C<sudoRunAsGroup> attribute is only available in B<sudo> versions
1.7.0 and higher.

=item B<sudoNotBefore>

A timestamp in the form C<yyyymmddHHMMSSZ> that can be used to provide
a start date/time for when the C<sudoRole> will be valid.  If
multiple C<sudoNotBefore> entries are present, the earliest is used.
Note that timestamps must be in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC),
not the local timezone.  The minute and seconds portions are optional,
but some LDAP servers require that they be present (contrary to the RFC).

The C<sudoNotBefore> attribute is only available in B<sudo> versions
1.7.5 and higher and must be explicitly enabled via the B<SUDOERS_TIMED>
option in F<@ldap_conf@>.

=item B<sudoNotAfter>

A timestamp in the form C<yyyymmddHHMMSSZ> that indicates an expiration
date/time, after which the C<sudoRole> will no longer be valid.  If
multiple C<sudoNotBefore> entries are present, the last one is used.
Note that timestamps must be in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC),
not the local timezone.  The minute and seconds portions are optional,
but some LDAP servers require that they be present (contrary to the RFC).

The C<sudoNotAfter> attribute is only available in B<sudo> versions
1.7.5 and higher and must be explicitly enabled via the B<SUDOERS_TIMED>
option in F<@ldap_conf@>.

=item B<sudoOrder>

The C<sudoRole> entries retrieved from the LDAP directory have no
inherent order.  The C<sudoOrder> attribute is an integer (or
floating point value for LDAP servers that support it) that is used
to sort the matching entries.  This allows LDAP-based sudoers entries
to more closely mimic the behaviour of the sudoers file, where the
of the entries influences the result.  If multiple entries match,
the entry with the highest C<sudoOrder> attribute is chosen.  This
corresponds to the "last match" behavior of the sudoers file.  If
the C<sudoOrder> attribute is not present, a value of 0 is assumed.

The C<sudoOrder> attribute is only available in B<sudo> versions
1.7.5 and higher.

=back

Each attribute listed above should contain a single value, but there
may be multiple instances of each attribute type.  A C<sudoRole> must
contain at least one C<sudoUser>, C<sudoHost> and C<sudoCommand>.

The following example allows users in group wheel to run any command
on any host via B<sudo>:

    dn: cn=%wheel,ou=SUDOers,dc=example,dc=com
    objectClass: top
    objectClass: sudoRole
    cn: %wheel
    sudoUser: %wheel
    sudoHost: ALL
    sudoCommand: ALL

=head2 Anatomy of LDAP sudoers lookup

When looking up a sudoer using LDAP there are only two or three
LDAP queries per invocation.  The first query is to parse the global
options.  The second is to match against the user's name and the
groups that the user belongs to.  (The special ALL tag is matched
in this query too.)  If no match is returned for the user's name
and groups, a third query returns all entries containing user
netgroups and checks to see if the user belongs to any of them.

If timed entries are enabled with the B<SUDOERS_TIMED> configuration
directive, the LDAP queries include a subfilter that limits retrieval
to entries that satisfy the time constraints, if any.

=head2 Differences between LDAP and non-LDAP sudoers

There are some subtle differences in the way sudoers is handled
once in LDAP.  Probably the biggest is that according to the RFC,
LDAP ordering is arbitrary and you cannot expect that Attributes
and Entries are returned in any specific order.

The order in which different entries are applied can be controlled
using the C<sudoOrder> attribute, but there is no way to guarantee
the order of attributes within a specific entry.  If there are
conflicting command rules in an entry, the negative takes precedence.
This is called paranoid behavior (not necessarily the most specific
match).

Here is an example:

    # /etc/sudoers:
    # Allow all commands except shell
    johnny  ALL=(root) ALL,!/bin/sh
    # Always allows all commands because ALL is matched last
    puddles ALL=(root) !/bin/sh,ALL

    # LDAP equivalent of johnny
    # Allows all commands except shell
    dn: cn=role1,ou=Sudoers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
    objectClass: sudoRole
    objectClass: top
    cn: role1
    sudoUser: johnny
    sudoHost: ALL
    sudoCommand: ALL
    sudoCommand: !/bin/sh

    # LDAP equivalent of puddles
    # Notice that even though ALL comes last, it still behaves like
    # role1 since the LDAP code assumes the more paranoid configuration
    dn: cn=role2,ou=Sudoers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
    objectClass: sudoRole
    objectClass: top
    cn: role2
    sudoUser: puddles
    sudoHost: ALL
    sudoCommand: !/bin/sh
    sudoCommand: ALL

Another difference is that negations on the Host, User or Runas are
currently ignored.  For example, the following attributes do not
behave the way one might expect.

    # does not match all but joe
    # rather, does not match anyone
    sudoUser: !joe

    # does not match all but joe
    # rather, matches everyone including Joe
    sudoUser: ALL
    sudoUser: !joe

    # does not match all but web01
    # rather, matches all hosts including web01
    sudoHost: ALL
    sudoHost: !web01

=head2 Sudoers Schema

In order to use B<sudo>'s LDAP support, the B<sudo> schema must be
installed on your LDAP server.  In addition, be sure to index the
'sudoUser' attribute.

Three versions of the schema: one for OpenLDAP servers (F<schema.OpenLDAP>),
one for Netscape-derived servers (F<schema.iPlanet>), and one for
Microsoft Active Directory (F<schema.ActiveDirectory>) may
be found in the B<sudo> distribution.

The schema for B<sudo> in OpenLDAP form is included in the L<EXAMPLES>
section.

=head2 Configuring ldap.conf

Sudo reads the F<@ldap_conf@> file for LDAP-specific configuration.
Typically, this file is shared amongst different LDAP-aware clients.
As such, most of the settings are not B<sudo>-specific.  Note that
B<sudo> parses F<@ldap_conf@> itself and may support options
that differ from those described in the L<ldap.conf(5)> manual.

Also note that on systems using the OpenLDAP libraries, default
values specified in F</etc/openldap/ldap.conf> or the user's
F<.ldaprc> files are not used.

Only those options explicitly listed in F<@ldap_conf@> as being
supported by B<sudo> are honored.  Configuration options are listed
below in upper case but are parsed in a case-independent manner.

=over 4

=item B<URI> ldap[s]://[hostname[:port]] ...

Specifies a whitespace-delimited list of one or more URIs describing
the LDAP server(s) to connect to.  The I<protocol> may be either
B<ldap> or B<ldaps>, the latter being for servers that support TLS
(SSL) encryption.  If no I<port> is specified, the default is port
389 for C<ldap://> or port 636 for C<ldaps://>.  If no I<hostname>
is specified, B<sudo> will connect to B<localhost>.  Multiple B<URI>
lines are treated identically to a B<URI> line containing multiple
entries.  Only systems using the OpenSSL libraries support the
mixing of C<ldap://> and C<ldaps://> URIs.  The Netscape-derived
libraries used on most commercial versions of Unix are only capable
of supporting one or the other.

=item B<HOST> name[:port] ...

If no B<URI> is specified, the B<HOST> parameter specifies a
whitespace-delimited list of LDAP servers to connect to.  Each host
may include an optional I<port> separated by a colon (':').  The
B<HOST> parameter is deprecated in favor of the B<URI> specification
and is included for backwards compatibility.

=item B<PORT> port_number

If no B<URI> is specified, the B<PORT> parameter specifies the
default port to connect to on the LDAP server if a B<HOST> parameter
does not specify the port itself.  If no B<PORT> parameter is used,
the default is port 389 for LDAP and port 636 for LDAP over TLS
(SSL).  The B<PORT> parameter is deprecated in favor of the B<URI>
specification and is included for backwards compatibility.

=item B<BIND_TIMELIMIT> seconds

The B<BIND_TIMELIMIT> parameter specifies the amount of time, in seconds,
to wait while trying to connect to an LDAP server.  If multiple B<URI>s or
B<HOST>s are specified, this is the amount of time to wait before trying
the next one in the list.

=item B<NETWORK_TIMEOUT> seconds

An alias for B<BIND_TIMELIMIT> for OpenLDAP compatibility.

=item B<TIMELIMIT> seconds

The B<TIMELIMIT> parameter specifies the amount of time, in seconds,
to wait for a response to an LDAP query.

=item B<TIMEOUT> seconds

The B<TIMEOUT> parameter specifies the amount of time, in seconds,
to wait for a response from the various LDAP APIs.

=item B<SUDOERS_BASE> base

The base DN to use when performing B<sudo> LDAP queries.  Typically
this is of the form C<ou=SUDOers,dc=example,dc=com> for the domain
C<example.com>.  Multiple B<SUDOERS_BASE> lines may be specified,
in which case they are queried in the order specified.

=item B<SUDOERS_SEARCH_FILTER> ldap_filter

An LDAP filter which is used to restrict the set of records returned
when performing a B<sudo> LDAP query.  Typically, this is of the
form C<attribute=value> or C<(&(attribute=value)(attribute2=value2))>.

=item B<SUDOERS_TIMED> on/true/yes/off/false/no

Whether or not to evaluate the C<sudoNotBefore> and C<sudoNotAfter>
attributes that implement time-dependent sudoers entries.

=item B<SUDOERS_DEBUG> debug_level

This sets the debug level for B<sudo> LDAP queries.  Debugging
information is printed to the standard error.  A value of 1 results
in a moderate amount of debugging information.  A value of 2 shows
the results of the matches themselves.  This parameter should not
be set in a production environment as the extra information is
likely to confuse users.

=item B<BINDDN> DN

The B<BINDDN> parameter specifies the identity, in the form of a
Distinguished Name (DN), to use when performing LDAP operations.
If not specified, LDAP operations are performed with an anonymous
identity.  By default, most LDAP servers will allow anonymous access.

=item B<BINDPW> secret

The B<BINDPW> parameter specifies the password to use when performing
LDAP operations.  This is typically used in conjunction with the
B<BINDDN> parameter.

=item B<ROOTBINDDN> DN

The B<ROOTBINDDN> parameter specifies the identity, in the form of
a Distinguished Name (DN), to use when performing privileged LDAP
operations, such as I<sudoers> queries.  The password corresponding
to the identity should be stored in F<@ldap_secret@>.
If not specified, the B<BINDDN> identity is used (if any).

=item B<LDAP_VERSION> number

The version of the LDAP protocol to use when connecting to the server.
The default value is protocol version 3.

=item B<SSL> on/true/yes/off/false/no

If the B<SSL> parameter is set to C<on>, C<true> or C<yes>, TLS
(SSL) encryption is always used when communicating with the LDAP
server.  Typically, this involves connecting to the server on port
636 (ldaps).

=item B<SSL> start_tls

If the B<SSL> parameter is set to C<start_tls>, the LDAP server
connection is initiated normally and TLS encryption is begun before
the bind credentials are sent.  This has the advantage of not
requiring a dedicated port for encrypted communications.  This
parameter is only supported by LDAP servers that honor the C<start_tls>
extension, such as the OpenLDAP server.

=item B<TLS_CHECKPEER> on/true/yes/off/false/no

If enabled, B<TLS_CHECKPEER> will cause the LDAP server's TLS
certificated to be verified.  If the server's TLS certificate cannot
be verified (usually because it is signed by an unknown certificate
authority), B<sudo> will be unable to connect to it.  If B<TLS_CHECKPEER>
is disabled, no check is made.  Note that disabling the check creates
an opportunity for man-in-the-middle attacks since the server's
identity will not be authenticated.  If possible, the CA's certificate
should be installed locally so it can be verified.

=item B<TLS_CACERT> file name

An alias for B<TLS_CACERTFILE> for OpenLDAP compatibility.

=item B<TLS_CACERTFILE> file name

The path to a certificate authority bundle which contains the certificates
for all the Certificate Authorities the client knows to be valid,
e.g. F</etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem>.
This option is only supported by the OpenLDAP libraries.
Netscape-derived LDAP libraries use the same certificate
database for CA and client certificates (see B<TLS_CERT>).

=item B<TLS_CACERTDIR> directory

Similar to B<TLS_CACERTFILE> but instead of a file, it is a
directory containing individual Certificate Authority certificates,
e.g. F</etc/ssl/certs>.
The directory specified by B<TLS_CACERTDIR> is checked after
B<TLS_CACERTFILE>.
This option is only supported by the OpenLDAP libraries.

=item B<TLS_CERT> file name

The path to a file containing the client certificate which can
be used to authenticate the client to the LDAP server.
The certificate type depends on the LDAP libraries used.

OpenLDAP:
    C<tls_cert /etc/ssl/client_cert.pem>

Netscape-derived:
    C<tls_cert /var/ldap/cert7.db>

When using Netscape-derived libraries, this file may also contain
Certificate Authority certificates.

=item B<TLS_KEY> file name

The path to a file containing the private key which matches the
certificate specified by B<TLS_CERT>.  The private key must not be
password-protected.  The key type depends on the LDAP libraries
used.

OpenLDAP:
    C<tls_key /etc/ssl/client_key.pem>

Netscape-derived:
    C<tls_key /var/ldap/key3.db>

=item B<TLS_RANDFILE> file name

The B<TLS_RANDFILE> parameter specifies the path to an entropy
source for systems that lack a random device.  It is generally used
in conjunction with I<prngd> or I<egd>.
This option is only supported by the OpenLDAP libraries.

=item B<TLS_CIPHERS> cipher list

The B<TLS_CIPHERS> parameter allows the administer to restrict
which encryption algorithms may be used for TLS (SSL) connections.
See the OpenSSL manual for a list of valid ciphers.
This option is only supported by the OpenLDAP libraries.

=item B<USE_SASL> on/true/yes/off/false/no

Enable B<USE_SASL> for LDAP servers that support SASL authentication.

=item B<SASL_AUTH_ID> identity

The SASL user name to use when connecting to the LDAP server.
By default, B<sudo> will use an anonymous connection.

=item B<ROOTUSE_SASL> on/true/yes/off/false/no

Enable B<ROOTUSE_SASL> to enable SASL authentication when connecting
to an LDAP server from a privileged process, such as B<sudo>.

=item B<ROOTSASL_AUTH_ID> identity

The SASL user name to use when B<ROOTUSE_SASL> is enabled.

=item B<SASL_SECPROPS> none/properties

SASL security properties or I<none> for no properties.  See the
SASL programmer's manual for details.

=item B<KRB5_CCNAME> file name

The path to the Kerberos 5 credential cache to use when authenticating
with the remote server.

=item B<DEREF> never/searching/finding/always

How alias dereferencing is to be performed when searching.  See the
L<ldap.conf(5)> manual for a full description of this option.

=back

See the C<ldap.conf> entry in the L<EXAMPLES> section.

=head2 Configuring nsswitch.conf

Unless it is disabled at build time, B<sudo> consults the Name
Service Switch file, F<@nsswitch_conf@>, to specify the I<sudoers>
search order.  Sudo looks for a line beginning with C<sudoers>: and
uses this to determine the search order.  Note that B<sudo> does
not stop searching after the first match and later matches take
precedence over earlier ones.

The following sources are recognized:

    files       read sudoers from F<@sysconfdir@/sudoers>
    ldap        read sudoers from LDAP

In addition, the entry C<[NOTFOUND=return]> will short-circuit the
search if the user was not found in the preceding source.

To consult LDAP first followed by the local sudoers file (if it
exists), use:

    sudoers: ldap files

The local I<sudoers> file can be ignored completely by using:

    sudoers: ldap

If the F<@nsswitch_conf@> file is not present or there is no
sudoers line, the following default is assumed:

    sudoers: files

Note that F<@nsswitch_conf@> is supported even when the underlying
operating system does not use an nsswitch.conf file.

=head2 Configuring netsvc.conf

On AIX systems, the F<@netsvc_conf@> file is consulted instead of
F<@nsswitch_conf@>.  B<sudo> simply treats I<netsvc.conf> as a
variant of I<nsswitch.conf>; information in the previous section
unrelated to the file format itself still applies.

To consult LDAP first followed by the local sudoers file (if it
exists), use:

    sudoers = ldap, files

The local I<sudoers> file can be ignored completely by using:

    sudoers = ldap

To treat LDAP as authoratative and only use the local sudoers file
if the user is not present in LDAP, use:

    sudoers = ldap = auth, files

Note that in the above example, the C<auth> qualfier only affects
user lookups; both LDAP and I<sudoers> will be queried for C<Defaults>
entries.

If the F<@netsvc_conf@> file is not present or there is no
sudoers line, the following default is assumed:

    sudoers = files

=head1 FILES

  # default names (e.g. cert8.db and key4.db), or the path to the cert
  # and key files themselves.  However, a bug in version 5.0 of the LDAP
  # SDK will prevent specific file names from working.  For this reason
  # it is suggested that tls_cert and tls_key be set to a directory,
  # not a file name.
  #
  # The certificate database specified by tls_cert may contain CA certs
  # and/or the client's cert.  If the client's cert is included, tls_key
  # should be specified as well.
  # For backward compatibility, "sslpath" may be used in place of tls_cert.
  #tls_cert /var/ldap
