I'll talk about the latest @sudoproject features, like #JSON formatted logging, controlling access even more and logging even more events.

https://2023.pass-the-salt.org/annual-report/
They have less visitors than speakers at some larger events, like #RSA Conference, but had more impact on #sudo and syslog-ng development, than any other event.

But not only this. It can be used beyond login managers. There was one time when I played with alternative authentication for #sudo program. In my case, I wanted to tap on my #YubiKey instead of using password. It proved inconvenient, so I rolled things back, but it's fascinating how easy it was to configure this.

18 followers · 488 posts · Server social.linux.pizzaCan someone explain an attack where aborting entering a password on #Linux is an attack vector?
I have this in #sudo all the time, but I assume it is the authentication system doing it.
When I hit Ctrl+c it sleeps for a long time, and if I do it several times in a row, my account is locked out.
In what plausible scenario can an attacker benefit from being able to start + cancel an authentication many times?

Und gleich noch eine Frage: von Paperless-ngx ist ein kleines Update erschienen - das muss ich manuell einspielen auf dem Raspberry Pi - wie gehe ich da vor, damit nichts von den Einstellungen gelöscht wird?
sudo apt update/upgrade bzw. sudo apt-get scheint nicht zu genügen
Danke!

Interesting sudo(8) versus doas(1) case.
While I always prefer doas(1) over sudo(8) there is at least one case where doas(1) is useless.
Allow group member to just install packages and not remove them.
