Description abliss1 2023-06-03 05:50:12 MDT

Running sudo version 1.9.13-4 on RHEL 9 in testing out sub command logging (i.e. added Defaults log_subcmds to sudoers).  I noticed that sudo will error out when the following is invoked: 'sudo su -' however the following invocation seems to work: 'sudo su'

The following error is thrown by sudo when a user executes 'sudo su -': sudo: argv[0] mismatch, expected "/bin/bash", got "-bash"

You can work around this by adding the following to your sudoers file:

Defaults !intercept_verify
