The Ubuntu 26.04 Rust sudo is not compatible with standard sudo

Quality: 9/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

Summary: The article reports that the Rust reimplementation of sudo on Ubuntu 26.04 ignores /etc/sudoers.d and lacks logging, making it incompatible with standard sudo. It provides concrete examples showing wildcards in command arguments are mishandled, and argues that this is dangerous and misleading documentation. The author calls for removing sudo-rs and notes potential longer-term effects on system administration choices.
