Title
Sudo does not recognize non UNIX enabled security groups. -
Description
Sudo does not recognize non UNIX enabled security groups. -
Cause
The default line added by Safeguard Authentication Services (SAS) to the sudoers file is missing:
Defaults group_plugin="/opt/quest/lib64/libsudo_vas.so"
Product Defect: 311037
SAS checks if the sudo version is 1.8.15 or above. If it is the noted line needs to be added. SAS does this automatically however due to the product defect SAS is not reading more recent versions of sudo as being 1.8.15 or above when they in fact are. For example, 1.9.2 is seen as below 1.8.15.
-
Resolution
Workaround: Manually add the following line to the sudoers file:
Defaults group_plugin="/opt/quest/lib64/libsudo_vas.so"
The fix for product defect 311037 will be in a future release. At the time of this writing, June 2022 there is no ETA. -
