DESCRIPTION
sudo allows a permitted user to execute a command as the superuser or another user, as specified by the security
policy. The invoking user's real (not effective) user-ID is used to determine the user name with which to query
the security policy.
sudo supports a plugin architecture for security policies, auditing, and input/output logging. Third parties can
develop and distribute their own plugins to work seamlessly with the sudo front-end. The default security policy
is sudoers, which is configured via the file /etc/sudoers, or via LDAP. See the Plugins section for more infor‐
mation.
The security policy determines what privileges, if any, a user has to run sudo. The policy may require that
users authenticate themselves with a password or another authentication mechanism. If authentication is re‐
quired, sudo will exit if the user's password is not entered within a configurable time limit. This limit is
policy-specific; the default password prompt timeout for the sudoers security policy is 0 minutes.
Security policies may support credential caching to allow the user to run sudo again for a period of time without
requiring authentication. By default, the sudoers policy caches credentials on a per-terminal basis for 15 min‐
utes. See the timestamp_type and timestamp_timeout options in sudoers(5) for more information. By running sudo
with the -v option, a user can update the cached credentials without running a command.
On systems where sudo is the primary method of gaining superuser privileges, it is imperative to avoid syntax er‐
rors in the security policy configuration files. For the default security policy, sudoers(5), changes to the
configuration files should be made using the visudo(8) utility which will ensure that no syntax errors are intro‐
duced.
When invoked as sudoedit, the -e option (described below), is implied.
Security policies and audit plugins may log successful and failed attempts to run sudo. If an I/O plugin is con‐
figured, the running command's input and output may be logged as well.
The options are as follows:
-A, --askpass
Normally, if sudo requires a password, it will read it from the user's terminal. If the -A (askpass)
option is specified, a (possibly graphical) helper program is executed to read the user's password
and output the password to the standard output. If the SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable is set, it
specifies the path to the helper program. Otherwise, if sudo.conf(5) contains a line specifying the
askpass program, that value will be used. For example:
# Path to askpass helper program
Path askpass /usr/X11R6/bin/ssh-askpass
If no askpass program is available, sudo will exit with an error.
-B, --bell Ring the bell as part of the password prompt when a terminal is present. This option has no effect
if an askpass program is used.
-b, --background
Run the given command in the background. Note that it is not possible to use shell job control to
manipulate background processes started by sudo. Most interactive commands will fail to work prop‐
erly in background mode.
-C num, --close-from=num
Close all file descriptors greater than or equal to num before executing a command. Values less than
three are not permitted. By default, sudo will close all open file descriptors other than standard
input, standard output, and standard error when executing a command. The security policy may re‐
strict the user's ability to use this option. The sudoers policy only permits use of the -C option
when the administrator has enabled the closefrom_override option.
-D directory, --chdir=directory
Run the command in the specified directory instead of the current working directory. The security
policy may return an error if the user does not have permission to specify the working directory.
-E, --preserve-env
Indicates to the security policy that the user wishes to preserve their existing environment vari‐
ables. The security policy may return an error if the user does not have permission to preserve the
environment.
--preserve-env=list
Indicates to the security policy that the user wishes to add the comma-separated list of environment
variables to those preserved from the user's environment. The security policy may return an error if
the user does not have permission to preserve the environment. This option may be specified multiple
times.
-e, --edit Edit one or more files instead of running a command. In lieu of a path name, the string "sudoedit"
is used when consulting the security policy. If the user is authorized by the policy, the following
steps are taken:
1. Temporary copies are made of the files to be edited with the owner set to the invoking user.
2. The editor specified by the policy is run to edit the temporary files. The sudoers policy uses
the SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables (in that order). If none of
SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL or EDITOR are set, the first program listed in the editor sudoers(5) option
is used.
3. If they have been modified, the temporary files are copied back to their original location and
the temporary versions are removed.
To help prevent the editing of unauthorized files, the following restrictions are enforced unless ex‐
plicitly allowed by the security policy:
? Symbolic links may not be edited (version 1.8.15 and higher).
? Symbolic links along the path to be edited are not followed when the parent directory is writable
by the invoking user unless that user is root (version 1.8.16 and higher).
? Files located in a directory that is writable by the invoking user may not be edited unless that
user is root (version 1.8.16 and higher).
Users are never allowed to edit device special files.
If the specified file does not exist, it will be created. Note that unlike most commands run by
sudo, the editor is run with the invoking user's environment unmodified. If the temporary file be‐
comes empty after editing, the user will be prompted before it is installed. If, for some reason,
sudo is unable to update a file with its edited version, the user will receive a warning and the
edited copy will remain in a temporary file.
-g group, --group=group
Run the command with the primary group set to group instead of the primary group specified by the
target user's password database entry. The group may be either a group name or a numeric group-ID
(GID) prefixed with the ‘#’ character (e.g., #0 for GID 0). When running a command as a GID, many
shells require that the ‘#’ be escaped with a backslash (‘\’). If no -u option is specified, the
command will be run as the invoking user. In either case, the primary group will be set to group.
The sudoers policy permits any of the target user's groups to be specified via the -g option as long
as the -P option is not in use.
-H, --set-home
Request that the security policy set the HOME environment variable to the home directory specified by
the target user's password database entry. Depending on the policy, this may be the default behav‐
ior.
-h, --help Display a short help message to the standard output and exit.
-h host, --host=host
Run the command on the specified host if the security policy plugin supports remote commands. Note
that the sudoers plugin does not currently support running remote commands. This may also be used in
conjunction with the -l option to list a user's privileges for the remote host.
-i, --login
Run the shell specified by the target user's password database entry as a login shell. This means
that login-specific resource files such as .profile, .bash_profile, or .login will be read by the
shell. If a command is specified, it is passed to the shell as a simple command using the -c option.
The command and any arguments are concatenated, separated by spaces, after escaping each character
(including white space) with a backslash (‘\’) except for alphanumerics, underscores, hyphens, and
dollar signs. If no command is specified, an interactive shell is executed. sudo attempts to change
to that user's home directory before running the shell. The command is run with an environment simi‐
lar to the one a user would receive at log in. Note that most shells behave differently when a com‐
mand is specified as compared to an interactive session; consult the shell's manual for details. The
Command environment section in the sudoers(5) manual documents how the -i option affects the environ‐
ment in which a command is run when the sudoers policy is in use.
-K, --remove-timestamp
Similar to the -k option, except that it removes the user's cached credentials entirely and may not
be used in conjunction with a command or other option. This option does not require a password. Not
all security policies support credential caching.
-k, --reset-timestamp
When used without a command, invalidates the user's cached credentials. In other words, the next
time sudo is run a password will be required. This option does not require a password, and was added
to allow a user to revoke sudo permissions from a .logout file.
When used in conjunction with a command or an option that may require a password, this option will
cause sudo to ignore the user's cached credentials. As a result, sudo will prompt for a password (if
one is required by the security policy) and will not update the user's cached credentials.
Not all security policies support credential caching.
-l, --list If no command is specified, list the allowed (and forbidden) commands for the invoking user (or the
user specified by the -U option) on the current host. A longer list format is used if this option is
specified multiple times and the security policy supports a verbose output format.
If a command is specified and is permitted by the security policy, the fully-qualified path to the
command is displayed along with any command line arguments. If a command is specified but not al‐
lowed by the policy, sudo will exit with a status value of 1.
-n, --non-interactive
Avoid prompting the user for input of any kind. If a password is required for the command to run,
sudo will display an error message and exit.
-P, --preserve-groups
Preserve the invoking user's group vector unaltered. By default, the sudoers policy will initialize
the group vector to the list of groups the target user is a member of. The real and effective group-
IDs, however, are still set to match the target user.
-p prompt, --prompt=prompt
Use a custom password prompt with optional escape sequences. The following percent (‘%’) escape se‐
quences are supported by the sudoers policy:
%H expanded to the host name including the domain name (only if the machine's host name is fully
qualified or the fqdn option is set in sudoers(5))
%h expanded to the local host name without the domain name
%p expanded to the name of the user whose password is being requested (respects the rootpw,
targetpw, and runaspw flags in sudoers(5))
%U expanded to the login name of the user the command will be run as (defaults to root unless the -u
option is also specified)
%u expanded to the invoking user's login name
%% two consecutive ‘%’ characters are collapsed into a single ‘%’ character
The custom prompt will override the default prompt specified by either the security policy or the
SUDO_PROMPT environment variable. On systems that use PAM, the custom prompt will also override the
prompt specified by a PAM module unless the passprompt_override flag is disabled in sudoers.
-R directory, --chroot=directory
Change to the specified root directory (see chroot(8)) before running the command. The security pol‐
icy may return an error if the user does not have permission to specify the root directory.
-r role, --role=role
Run the command with an SELinux security context that includes the specified role.
-S, --stdin
Write the prompt to the standard error and read the password from the standard input instead of using
the terminal device.
-s, --shell
Run the shell specified by the SHELL environment variable if it is set or the shell specified by the
invoking user's password database entry. If a command is specified, it is passed to the shell as a
simple command using the -c option. The command and any arguments are concatenated, separated by
spaces, after escaping each character (including white space) with a backslash (‘\’) except for al‐
phanumerics, underscores, hyphens, and dollar signs. If no command is specified, an interactive
shell is executed. Note that most shells behave differently when a command is specified as compared
to an interactive session; consult the shell's manual for details.
-t type, --type=type
Run the command with an SELinux security context that includes the specified type. If no type is
specified, the default type is derived from the role.
-U user, --other-user=user
Used in conjunction with the -l option to list the privileges for user instead of for the invoking
user. The security policy may restrict listing other users' privileges. The sudoers policy only al‐
lows root or a user with the ALL privilege on the current host to use this option.
-T timeout, --command-timeout=timeout
Used to set a timeout for the command. If the timeout expires before the command has exited, the
command will be terminated. The security policy may restrict the ability to set command timeouts.
The sudoers policy requires that user-specified timeouts be explicitly enabled.
-u user, --user=user
Run the command as a user other than the default target user (usually root). The user may be either
a user name or a numeric user-ID (UID) prefixed with the ‘#’ character (e.g., #0 for UID 0). When
running commands as a UID, many shells require that the ‘#’ be escaped with a backslash (‘\’). Some
security policies may restrict UIDs to those listed in the password database. The sudoers policy al‐
lows UIDs that are not in the password database as long as the targetpw option is not set. Other se‐
curity policies may not support this.
-V, --version
Print the sudo version string as well as the version string of any configured plugins. If the invok‐
ing user is already root, the -V option will display the arguments passed to configure when sudo was
built; plugins may display additional information such as default options.
-v, --validate
Update the user's cached credentials, authenticating the user if necessary. For the sudoers plugin,
this extends the sudo timeout for another 15 minutes by default, but does not run a command. Not all
security policies support cached credentials.
-- The -- option indicates that sudo should stop processing command line arguments.
Options that take a value may only be specified once unless otherwise indicated in the description. This is to
help guard against problems caused by poorly written scripts that invoke sudo with user-controlled input.
Environment variables to be set for the command may also be passed on the command line in the form of VAR=value,
e.g., LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pkg/lib. Variables passed on the command line are subject to restrictions im‐
posed by the security policy plugin. The sudoers policy subjects variables passed on the command line to the
same restrictions as normal environment variables with one important exception. If the setenv option is set in
sudoers, the command to be run has the SETENV tag set or the command matched is ALL, the user may set variables
that would otherwise be forbidden. See sudoers(5) for more information.
COMMAND EXECUTION
When sudo executes a command, the security policy specifies the execution environment for the command. Typi‐
cally, the real and effective user and group and IDs are set to match those of the target user, as specified in
the password database, and the group vector is initialized based on the group database (unless the -P option was
specified).
The following parameters may be specified by security policy:
? real and effective user-ID
? real and effective group-ID
? supplementary group-IDs
? the environment list
? current working directory
? file creation mode mask (umask)
? SELinux role and type
? scheduling priority (aka nice value)
Process model
There are two distinct ways sudo can run a command.
If an I/O logging plugin is configured or if the security policy explicitly requests it, a new pseudo-terminal
(“pty”) is allocated and fork(2) is used to create a second sudo process, referred to as the monitor. The
monitor creates a new terminal session with itself as the leader and the pty as its controlling terminal, calls
fork(2), sets up the execution environment as described above, and then uses the execve(2) system call to run the
command in the child process. The monitor exists to relay job control signals between the user's existing termi‐
nal and the pty the command is being run in. This makes it possible to suspend and resume the command. Without
the monitor, the command would be in what POSIX terms an “orphaned process group” and it would not receive any
job control signals from the kernel. When the command exits or is terminated by a signal, the monitor passes the
command's exit status to the main sudo process and exits. After receiving the command's exit status, the main
sudo passes the command's exit status to the security policy's close function and exits.
If no pty is used, sudo calls fork(2), sets up the execution environment as described above, and uses the
execve(2) system call to run the command in the child process. The main sudo process waits until the command has
completed, then passes the command's exit status to the security policy's close function and exits. As a special
case, if the policy plugin does not define a close function, sudo will execute the command directly instead of
calling fork(2) first. The sudoers policy plugin will only define a close function when I/O logging is enabled,
a pty is required, an SELinux role is specified, the command has an associated timeout, or the pam_session or
pam_setcred options are enabled. Note that pam_session and pam_setcred are enabled by default on systems using
PAM.
On systems that use PAM, the security policy's close function is responsible for closing the PAM session. It may
also log the command's exit status.
Signal handling
When the command is run as a child of the sudo process, sudo will relay signals it receives to the command. The
SIGINT and SIGQUIT signals are only relayed when the command is being run in a new pty or when the signal was
sent by a user process, not the kernel. This prevents the command from receiving SIGINT twice each time the user
enters control-C. Some signals, such as SIGSTOP and SIGKILL, cannot be caught and thus will not be relayed to
the command. As a general rule, SIGTSTP should be used instead of SIGSTOP when you wish to suspend a command be‐
ing run by sudo.
As a special case, sudo will not relay signals that were sent by the command it is running. This prevents the
command from accidentally killing itself. On some systems, the reboot(8) command sends SIGTERM to all non-system
processes other than itself before rebooting the system. This prevents sudo from relaying the SIGTERM signal it
received back to reboot(8), which might then exit before the system was actually rebooted, leaving it in a half-
dead state similar to single user mode. Note, however, that this check only applies to the command run by sudo
and not any other processes that the command may create. As a result, running a script that calls reboot(8) or
shutdown(8) via sudo may cause the system to end up in this undefined state unless the reboot(8) or shutdown(8)
are run using the exec() family of functions instead of system() (which interposes a shell between the command
and the calling process).
If no I/O logging plugins are loaded and the policy plugin has not defined a close() function, set a command
timeout, or required that the command be run in a new pty, sudo may execute the command directly instead of run‐
ning it as a child process.
Plugins
Plugins may be specified via Plugin directives in the sudo.conf(5) file. They may be loaded as dynamic shared
objects (on systems that support them), or compiled directly into the sudo binary. If no sudo.conf(5) file is
present, or if it doesn't contain any Plugin lines, sudo will use sudoers(5) for the policy, auditing, and I/O
logging plugins. See the sudo.conf(5) manual for details of the /etc/sudo.conf file and the sudo_plugin(5) man‐
ual for more information about the sudo plugin architecture.
EXIT VALUE
Upon successful execution of a command, the exit status from sudo will be the exit status of the program that was
executed. If the command terminated due to receipt of a signal, sudo will send itself the same signal that ter‐
minated the command.
If the -l option was specified without a command, sudo will exit with a value of 0 if the user is allowed to run
sudo and they authenticated successfully (as required by the security policy). If a command is specified with
the -l option, the exit value will only be 0 if the command is permitted by the security policy, otherwise it
will be 1.
If there is an authentication failure, a configuration/permission problem, or if the given command cannot be exe‐
cuted, sudo exits with a value of 1. In the latter case, the error string is printed to the standard error. If
sudo cannot stat(2) one or more entries in the user's PATH, an error is printed to the standard error. (If the
directory does not exist or if it is not really a directory, the entry is ignored and no error is printed.) This
should not happen under normal circumstances. The most common reason for stat(2) to return “permission denied”
is if you are running an automounter and one of the directories in your PATH is on a machine that is currently
unreachable.
SECURITY NOTES
sudo tries to be safe when executing external commands.
To prevent command spoofing, sudo checks "." and "" (both denoting current directory) last when searching for a
command in the user's PATH (if one or both are in the PATH). Depending on the security policy, the user's PATH
environment variable may be modified, replaced, or passed unchanged to the program that sudo executes.
Users should never be granted sudo privileges to execute files that are writable by the user or that reside in a
directory that is writable by the user. If the user can modify or replace the command there is no way to limit
what additional commands they can run.
Please note that sudo will normally only log the command it explicitly runs. If a user runs a command such as
sudo su or sudo sh, subsequent commands run from that shell are not subject to sudo's security policy. The same
is true for commands that offer shell escapes (including most editors). If I/O logging is enabled, subsequent
commands will have their input and/or output logged, but there will not be traditional logs for those commands.
Because of this, care must be taken when giving users access to commands via sudo to verify that the command does
not inadvertently give the user an effective root shell. For information on ways to address this, please see the
Preventing shell escapes section in sudoers(5).
To prevent the disclosure of potentially sensitive information, sudo disables core dumps by default while it is
executing (they are re-enabled for the command that is run). This historical practice dates from a time when
most operating systems allowed set-user-ID processes to dump core by default. To aid in debugging sudo crashes,
you may wish to re-enable core dumps by setting “disable_coredump” to false in the sudo.conf(5) file as follows:
Set disable_coredump false
See the sudo.conf(5) manual for more information.
ENVIRONMENT
sudo utilizes the following environment variables. The security policy has control over the actual content of
the command's environment.
EDITOR Default editor to use in -e (sudoedit) mode if neither SUDO_EDITOR nor VISUAL is set.
MAIL Set to the mail spool of the target user when the -i option is specified, or when env_reset is
enabled in sudoers (unless MAIL is present in the env_keep list).
HOME Set to the home directory of the target user when the -i or -H options are specified, when the
-s option is specified and set_home is set in sudoers, when always_set_home is enabled in
sudoers, or when env_reset is enabled in sudoers and HOME is not present in the env_keep list.
LOGNAME Set to the login name of the target user when the -i option is specified, when the set_logname
option is enabled in sudoers, or when the env_reset option is enabled in sudoers (unless LOGNAME
is present in the env_keep list).
PATH May be overridden by the security policy.
SHELL Used to determine shell to run with -s option.
SUDO_ASKPASS Specifies the path to a helper program used to read the password if no terminal is available or
if the -A option is specified.
SUDO_COMMAND Set to the command run by sudo, including command line arguments. The command line arguments
are truncated at 4096 characters to prevent a potential execution error.
SUDO_EDITOR Default editor to use in -e (sudoedit) mode.
SUDO_GID Set to the group-ID of the user who invoked sudo.
SUDO_PROMPT Used as the default password prompt unless the -p option was specified.
SUDO_PS1 If set, PS1 will be set to its value for the program being run.
SUDO_UID Set to the user-ID of the user who invoked sudo.
SUDO_USER Set to the login name of the user who invoked sudo.
USER Set to the same value as LOGNAME, described above.
VISUAL Default editor to use in -e (sudoedit) mode if SUDO_EDITOR is not set.
FILES
/etc/sudo.conf sudo front-end configuration
EXAMPLES
Note: the following examples assume a properly configured security policy.
To get a file listing of an unreadable directory:
$ sudo ls /usr/local/protected
To list the home directory of user yaz on a machine where the file system holding ~yaz is not exported as root:
$ sudo -u yaz ls ~yaz
To edit the index.html file as user www:
$ sudoedit -u www ~www/htdocs/index.html
To view system logs only accessible to root and users in the adm group:
$ sudo -g adm more /var/log/syslog
To run an editor as jim with a different primary group:
$ sudoedit -u jim -g audio ~jim/sound.txt
To shut down a machine:
$ sudo shutdown -r +15 "quick reboot"
To make a usage listing of the directories in the /home partition. Note that this runs the commands in a sub-
shell to make the cd and file redirection work.
$ sudo sh -c "cd /home ; du -s * | sort -rn > USAGE"
DIAGNOSTICS
Error messages produced by sudo include:
editing files in a writable directory is not permitted
By default, sudoedit does not permit editing a file when any of the parent directories are writable by the
invoking user. This avoids a race condition that could allow the user to overwrite an arbitrary file. See
the sudoedit_checkdir option in sudoers(5) for more information.
editing symbolic links is not permitted
By default, sudoedit does not follow symbolic links when opening files. See the sudoedit_follow option in
sudoers(5) for more information.
effective uid is not 0, is sudo installed setuid root?
sudo was not run with root privileges. The sudo binary must be owned by the root user and have the set-
user-ID bit set. Also, it must not be located on a file system mounted with the ‘nosuid’ option or on an
NFS file system that maps uid 0 to an unprivileged uid.
effective uid is not 0, is sudo on a file system with the 'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root
privileges?
sudo was not run with root privileges. The sudo binary has the proper owner and permissions but it still
did not run with root privileges. The most common reason for this is that the file system the sudo binary
is located on is mounted with the ‘nosuid’ option or it is an NFS file system that maps uid 0 to an unpriv‐
ileged uid.
fatal error, unable to load plugins
An error occurred while loading or initializing the plugins specified in sudo.conf(5).
invalid environment variable name
One or more environment variable names specified via the -E option contained an equal sign (‘=’). The ar‐
guments to the -E option should be environment variable names without an associated value.
no password was provided
When sudo tried to read the password, it did not receive any characters. This may happen if no terminal is
available (or the -S option is specified) and the standard input has been redirected from /dev/null.
a terminal is required to read the password
sudo needs to read the password but there is no mechanism available for it to do so. A terminal is not
present to read the password from, sudo has not been configured to read from the standard input, the -S op‐
tion was not used, and no askpass helper has been specified either via the sudo.conf(5) file or the
SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable.
no writable temporary directory found
sudoedit was unable to find a usable temporary directory in which to store its intermediate files.
The “no new privileges” flag is set, which prevents sudo from running as root.
sudo was run by a process that has the Linux “no new privileges” flag is set. This causes the set-user-ID
bit to be ignored when running an executable, which will prevent sudo from functioning. The most likely
cause for this is running sudo within a container that sets this flag. Check the documentation to see if
it is possible to configure the container such that the flag is not set.
sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
sudo was not run with root privileges. The sudo binary does not have the correct owner or permissions. It
must be owned by the root user and have the set-user-ID bit set.
sudoedit is not supported on this platform
It is only possible to run sudoedit on systems that support setting the effective user-ID.
timed out reading password
The user did not enter a password before the password timeout (5 minutes by default) expired.
you do not exist in the passwd database
Your user-ID does not appear in the system passwd database.
you may not specify environment variables in edit mode
It is only possible to specify environment variables when running a command. When editing a file, the edi‐
tor is run with the user's environment unmodified.

CAVEATS
There is no easy way to prevent a user from gaining a root shell if that user is allowed to run arbitrary com‐
mands via sudo. Also, many programs (such as editors) allow the user to run commands via shell escapes, thus
avoiding sudo's checks. However, on most systems it is possible to prevent shell escapes with the sudoers(5)
plugin's noexec functionality.
It is not meaningful to run the cd command directly via sudo, e.g.,
$ sudo cd /usr/local/protected
since when the command exits the parent process (your shell) will still be the same. Please see the EXAMPLES
section for more information.
Running shell scripts via sudo can expose the same kernel bugs that make set-user-ID shell scripts unsafe on some
operating systems (if your OS has a /dev/fd/ directory, set-user-ID shell scripts are generally safe).
