* Sudo has been refactored to use modular framework that can
support third-party policy and I/O logging plugins. The default
plugin is "sudoers" which provides the traditional sudo
- functionality. See the sudo_plugins manual for details on the
+ functionality. See the sudo_plugin manual for details on the
plugin interface and the sample plugin for a simple example.
What's new in Sudo 1.7.3?
Mac OS X, and Linux systems with the devpts filesystem (pseudo-ttys
only).
+ * Sudo's SELinux support should now function correctly when running
+ commands as a non-root user and when one of stdin, stdout or stderr
+ is not a terminal.
+
+ * Sudo now uses mbr_check_membership() on systems that support it
+ to determine group membership. Currently, only Darwin (Mac OS X)
+ supports this.
+
* The passwd_timeout and timestamp_timeout options may now be
specified as floating point numbers for more granular timeout
values.
