Package: sudo
Version: 1.8.5p2-1
Severity: normal
I had a script (that used to work on some older version of sudo) doing
the equivalent of:
sudo -u ultrotter -i "echo ciao && whoami"
ciao
ultrotter
This worked eg. on Sudo version 1.7.2p1
Nowadays it does parse the command as one single command:
sudo -u ultrotter -i "echo foo && whoami"
-bash: echo foo && whoami: command not found
Of course for any normal command all works by removing the quotes, but
it seems to be that there's not anymore a way to pass && or || to an
interactive sudo command (although bash -c ... will work) because
there's no way to excape them from the shell in which sudo is executed,
but not from the shell that sudo executes.
Thanks,
Guido
