Hi All,
It seems to me that since /etc/sudoers is visible from a
standard user account, that all a bad guy has to do is
cat the file, find some program that is elevated, then
overwrite that program with his evil deeds, and boom,
you are hacked.
Am I missing something?
If the bad guy can overwrite the executable, then you have a bigger
security problem.
I can see if someone is not careful so make sure the
programs in sudoers are not locked to root, you
would get in trouble, as you did state.
