+What's new in Sudo 1.8.7?
+
+ * The non-Unix group plugin is now supported when sudoers data
+ is stored in LDAP.
+
+ * Sudo now uses a workaround for a locale bug on Solaris 11.0
+ that prevents setuid programs like sudo from fully using locales.
+
+ * User messages are now always displayed in the user's locale,
+ even when the same message is being logged or mailed in a
+ different locale.
+
+ * Log files created by sudo now explicitly have the group set
+ to group ID 0 rather than relying on BSD group semantics (which
+ may not be the default).
+
+ * A new "exec_background" sudoers option can be used to initially
+ run the command without read access to the terminal when running
+ a command in a pseudo-tty. If the command tries to read from
+ the terminal it will be stopped by the kernel (via SIGTTIN or
+ SIGTTOU) and sudo will immediately restart it as the forground
+ process (if possible). This allows sudo to only pass terminal
+ input to the program if the program actually is expecting it.
+ Unfortunately, a few poorly-behaved programs (like "su" on most
+ Linux systems) do not handle SIGTTIN and SIGTTOU properly.
+
+ * Sudo now uses an efficient group query to get all the groups
+ for a user instead of iterating over every record in the group
+ database on HP-UX and Solaris.
+
+ * Sudo now produces better error messages when there is an error
+ in the sudo.conf file.
+
+ * Two new settings have been added to sudo.conf to give the admin
+ better control of how group database queries are performed. The
+ "group_source" specifies how the group list for a user will be
+ determined. Legal values are "static" (use the kernel groups
+ list), "dynamic" (perform a group database query) and "adaptive"
+ (only perform a group database query if the kernel list is full).
+ The "max_groups" specifies the maximum number of groups a user may
+ belong to when performing a group database query.
+
+ * The sudo.conf file now supports line continuation by using a
+ backslash as the last character on the line.
+
+ * There is now a standalone sudo.conf manual page.
+
+ * Sudo now stores its libexec files in a "sudo" subdirectory instead
+ of in libexec itself. For backwards compatibility, if the plugin
+ is not found in the default plugin directory, sudo will check
+ the parent directory if the default directory ends in "/sudo".
+
+ * The sudoers I/O logging plugin now logs the terminal size.
+
+ * A new sudoers option "maxseq" can be used to limit the number of
+ I/O log entries that are stored.
+
+ * The "system_group" and "group_file" sudoers group provider plugins
+ are now installed by default.
+
+ * The list output (sudo -l) output from the sudoers plugin is now
+ less ambiguous when an entry includes different runas users.
+ The long list output (sudo -ll) for file-based sudoers is now
+ more consistent with the format of LDAP-based sudoers.
+
+ * A uid may now be used in the sudoRunAsUser attributes for LDAP
+ sudoers.
+
+ * Minor plugin API change: the close and version functions are now
+ optional. If the policy plugin does not provide a close function
+ and the command is not being run in a new pseudo-tty, sudo may
+ now execute the command directly instead of in a child process.
+
+ * A new sudoers option "pam_session" can be used to disable sudo's
+ PAM session support.
+
+ * On HP-UX systems, sudo will now use the pstat() function to
+ determine the tty instead of ttyname().
+
+ * Turkish translation for sudo and sudoers from translationproject.org.
+
+ * Dutch translation for sudo and sudoers from translationproject.org.
+
+ * Tivoli Directory Server client libraries may now be used with
+ HP-UX where libibmldap has a hidden dependency on libCsup.
+
+ * The sudoers plugin will now ignore invalid domain names when
+ checking netgroup membership. Most Linux systems use the string
+ "(none)" for the NIS-style domain name instead of an empty string.
+
+ * New support for specifying a SHA-2 digest along with the command
+ in sudoers. Supported hash types are sha224, sha256, sha384 and
+ sha512. See the description of Digest_Spec in the sudoers manual
+ or the description of sudoCommand in the sudoers.ldap manual for
+ details.
+
+ * The paths to ldap.conf and ldap.secret may now be specified as
+ arguments to the sudoers plugin in the sudo.conf file.
+
+ * Fixed potential false positives in visudo's alias cycle detection.
+
+ * Fixed a problem where the time stamp file was being treated
+ as out of date on Linux systems where the change time on the
+ pseudo-tty device node can change after it is allocated.
+
+ * Sudo now only builds Position Independent Executables (PIE)
+ by default on Linux systems and verifies that a trivial test
+ program builds and runs.
+
+ * On Solaris 11.1 and higher, sudo binaries will now have the
+ ASLR tag enabled if supported by the linker.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p8?
+
+ * Terminal detection now works properly on 64-bit AIX kernels.
+ This was broken by the removal of the ttyname() fallback in Sudo
+ 1.8.6p6. Sudo is now able to map an AIX 64-bit device number
+ to the corresponding device file in /dev.
+
+ * Sudo now checks for crypt() returning NULL when performing
+ passwd-based authentication.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p7?
+
+ * A time stamp file with the date set to the epoch by "sudo -k"
+ is now completely ignored regardless of what the local clock is
+ set to. Previously, if the local clock was set to a value between
+ the epoch and the time stamp timeout value, a time stamp reset
+ by "sudo -k" would be considered current.
+
+ * The tty-specific time stamp file now includes the session ID
+ of the sudo process that created it. If a process with the same
+ tty but a different session ID runs sudo, the user will now be
+ prompted for a password (assuming authentication is required for
+ the command).
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p6?
+
+ * On systems where the controlling tty can be determined via /proc
+ or sysctl(), sudo will no longer fall back to using ttyname()
+ if the process has no controlling tty. This prevents sudo from
+ using a non-controlling tty for logging and time stamp purposes.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p5?
+
+ * Fixed a potential crash in visudo's alias cycle detection.
+
+ * Improved performance on Solaris when retrieving the group list
+ for the target user. On systems with a large number of groups
+ where the group database is not local (NIS, LDAP, AD), fetching
+ the group list could take a minute or more.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p4?
+
+ * The -fstack-protector is now used when linking visudo, sudoreplay
+ and testsudoers.
+
+ * Avoid building PIE binaries on FreeBSD/ia64 as they don't run
+ properly.
+
+ * Fixed a crash in visudo strict mode when an unknown Defaults
+ setting is encountered.
+
+ * Do not inform the user that the command was not permitted by the
+ policy if they do not successfully authenticate. This is a
+ regression introduced in sudo 1.8.6.
+
+ * Allow sudo to be build with sss support without also including
+ ldap support.
+
+ * Fix running commands that need the terminal in the background
+ when I/O logging is enabled. E.g. "sudo vi &". When the command
+ is foregrounded, it will now resume properly.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p3?
+
+ * Fixed post-processing of the man pages on systems with legacy
+ versions of sed.
+
+ * Fixed "sudoreplay -l" on Linux systems with file systems that
+ set DT_UNKNOWN in the d_type field of struct dirent.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p2?
+
+ * Fixed suspending a command after it has already been resumed
+ once when I/O logging (or use_pty) is not enabled.
+ This was a regression introduced in version 1.8.6.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6p1?
+
+ * Fixed the setting of LOGNAME, USER and USERNAME variables in the
+ command's environment when env_reset is enabled (the default).
+ This was a regression introduced in version 1.8.6.
+
+ * Sudo now honors SUCCESS=return in /etc/nsswitch.conf.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.6?
+
+ * Sudo is now built with the -fstack-protector flag if the the
+ compiler supports it. Also, the -zrelro linker flag is used if
+ supported. The --disable-hardening configure option can be used
+ to build sudo without stack smashing protection.
+
+ * Sudo is now built as a Position Independent Executable (PIE)
+ if supported by the compiler and linker.
+
+ * If the user is a member of the "exempt" group in sudoers, they
+ will no longer be prompted for a password even if the -k flag
+ is specified with the command. This makes "sudo -k command"
+ consistent with the behavior one would get if the user ran "sudo
+ -k" immediately before running the command.
+
+ * The sudoers file may now be a symbolic link. Previously, sudo
+ would refuse to read sudoers unless it was a regular file.
+
+ * The sudoreplay command can now properly replay sessions where
+ no tty was present.
+
+ * The sudoers plugin now takes advantage of symbol visibility
+ controls when supported by the compiler or linker. As a result,
+ only a small number of symbols are exported which significantly
+ reduces the chances of a conflict with other shared objects.
+
+ * Improved support for the Tivoli Directory Server LDAP client
+ libraries. This includes support for using LDAP over SSL (ldaps)
+ as well as support for the BIND_TIMELIMIT, TLS_KEY and TLS_CIPHERS
+ ldap.conf options. A new ldap.conf option, TLS_KEYPW can be
+ used to specify a password to decrypt the key database.
+
+ * When constructing a time filter for use with LDAP sudoNotBefore
+ and sudoNotAfter attributes, the current time now includes tenths
+ of a second. This fixes a problem with timed entries on Active
+ Directory.
+
+ * If a user fails to authenticate and the command would be rejected
+ by sudoers, it is now logged with "command not allowed" instead
+ of "N incorrect password attempts". Likewise, the "mail_no_perms"
+ sudoers option now takes precedence over "mail_badpass".
+
+ * The sudo manuals are now formatted using the mdoc macros. Versions
+ using the legacy man macros are provided for systems that lack mdoc.
+
+ * New support for Solaris privilege sets. This makes it possible
+ to specify fine-grained privileges in the sudoers file on Solaris
+ 10 and above. A Runas_Spec that contains no Runas_Lists can be
+ used to give a user the ability to run a command as themselves
+ but with an expanded privilege set.
+
+ * Fixed a problem with the reboot and shutdown commands on some
+ systems (such as HP-UX and BSD). On these systems, reboot sends
+ all processes (except itself) SIGTERM. When sudo received
+ SIGTERM, it would relay it to the reboot process, thus killing
+ reboot before it had a chance to actually reboot the system.
+
+ * Support for using the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) as
+ a source of sudoers data.
+
+ * Slovenian translation for sudo and sudoers from translationproject.org.
+
+ * Visudo will now warn about unknown Defaults entries that are
+ per-host, per-user, per-runas or per-command.
+
+ * Fixed a race condition that could cause sudo to receive SIGTTOU
+ (and stop) when resuming a shell that was run via sudo when I/O
+ logging (and use_pty) is not enabled.
+
+ * Sending SIGTSTP directly to the sudo process will now suspend the
+ running command when I/O logging (and use_pty) is not enabled.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.5p3?
+
+ * Fixed the loading of I/O plugins that conform to a plugin API
+ version older than 1.2.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.5p2?
+
+ * Fixed use of the SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable which was
+ broken in Sudo 1.8.5.
+
+ * Fixed a problem reading the sudoers file when the file mode is
+ more restrictive than the expected mode. For example, when the
+ expected sudoers file mode is 0440 but the actual mode is 0400.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.5p1?
+
+ * Fixed a bug that prevented files in an include directory from
+ being evaluated.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.5?
+
+ * When "noexec" is enabled, sudo_noexec.so will now be prepended
+ to any existing LD_PRELOAD variable instead of replacing it.
+
+ * The sudo_noexec.so shared library now wraps the execvpe(),
+ exect(), posix_spawn() and posix_spawnp() functions.
+
+ * The user/group/mode checks on sudoers files have been relaxed.
+ As long as the file is owned by the sudoers uid, not world-writable
+ and not writable by a group other than the sudoers gid, the file
+ is considered OK. Note that visudo will still set the mode to
+ the value specified at configure time.
+
+ * It is now possible to specify the sudoers path, uid, gid and
+ file mode as options to the plugin in the sudo.conf file.
+
+ * Croatian, Galician, German, Lithuanian, Swedish and Vietnamese
+ translations from translationproject.org.
+
+ * /etc/environment is no longer read directly on Linux systems
+ when PAM is used. Sudo now merges the PAM environment into the
+ user's environment which is typically set by the pam_env module.
+
+ * The initial evironment created when env_reset is in effect now
+ includes the contents of /etc/environment on AIX systems and the
+ "setenv" and "path" entries from /etc/login.conf on BSD systems.
+
+ * The plugin API has been extended in three ways. First, options
+ specified in sudo.conf after the plugin pathname are passed to
+ the plugin's open function. Second, sudo has limited support
+ for hooks that can be used by plugins. Currently, the hooks are
+ limited to environment handling functions. Third, the init_session
+ policy plugin function is passed a pointer to the user environment
+ which can be updated during session setup. The plugin API version
+ has been incremented to version 1.2. See the sudo_plugin manual
+ for more information.
+
+ * The policy plugin's init_session function is now called by the
+ parent sudo process, not the child process that executes the
+ command. This allows the PAM session to be open and closed in
+ the same process, which some PAM modules require.
+
+ * Fixed parsing of "Path askpass" and "Path noexec" in sudo.conf,
+ which was broken in version 1.8.4.
+
+ * On systems with an SVR4-style /proc file system, the /proc/pid/psinfo
+ file is now uses to determine the controlling terminal, if possible.
+ This allows tty-based tickets to work properly even when, e.g.
+ standard input, output and error are redirected to /dev/null.
+
+ * The output of "sudoreplay -l" is now sorted by file name (or
+ sequence number). Previously, entries were displayed in the
+ order in which they were found on the file system.
+
+ * Sudo now behaves properly when I/O logging is enabled and the
+ controlling terminal is revoked (e.g. the running sshd is killed).
+ Previously, sudo may have exited without calling the I/O plugin's
+ close function which can lead to an incomplete I/O log.
+
+ * Sudo can now detect when a user has logged out and back in again
+ on Solaris 11, just like it can on Solaris 10.
+
+ * The built-in zlib included with Sudo has been upgraded to version
+ 1.2.6.
+
+ * Setting the SSL parameter to start_tls in ldap.conf now works
+ properly when using Mozilla-based SDKs that support the
+ ldap_start_tls_s() function.
+
+ * The TLS_CHECKPEER parameter in ldap.conf now works when the
+ Mozilla NSS crypto backend is used with OpenLDAP.
+
+ * A new group provider plugin, system_group, is included which
+ performs group look ups by name using the system groups database.
+ This can be used to restore the pre-1.7.3 sudo group lookup
+ behavior.
+
+What's new in Sudo 1.8.4p5?
+
+ * Fixed a bug when matching against an IP address with an associated
+ netmask in the sudoers file. In certain circumstances, this
+ could allow users to run commands on hosts they are not authorized
+ for.
+
What's new in Sudo 1.8.4p4?
* Fixed a bug introduced in Sudo 1.8.4 which prevented "sudo -v"
* Fixed a crash in the monitor process on Solaris when NOPASSWD
was specified or when authentication was disabled.
-
+
* Fixed matching of a Runas_Alias in the group section of a
Runas_Spec.
