VISUDO(8)                          BSD System Manager's Manual                          VISUDO(8)

NAME
     visudo — edit the sudoers file

SYNOPSIS
     visudo [-chqsV] [-f sudoers] [-x output_file]

DESCRIPTION
     visudo edits the sudoers file in a safe fashion, analogous to vipw(8).  visudo locks the
     sudoers file against multiple simultaneous edits, provides basic sanity checks, and checks
     for parse errors.  If the sudoers file is currently being edited you will receive a message
     to try again later.

     There is a hard-coded list of one or more editors that visudo will use set at compile-time
     that may be overridden via the editor sudoers Default variable.  This list defaults to
     /usr/bin/editor.  Normally, visudo does not honor the VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables
     unless they contain an editor in the aforementioned editors list.  However, if visudo is
     configured with the --with-env-editor option or the env_editor Default variable is set in
     sudoers, visudo will use any the editor defines by VISUAL or EDITOR.  Note that this can be
     a security hole since it allows the user to execute any program they wish simply by setting
     VISUAL or EDITOR.

     visudo parses the sudoers file after the edit and will not save the changes if there is a
     syntax error.  Upon finding an error, visudo will print a message stating the line number(s)
     where the error occurred and the user will receive the “What now?” prompt.  At this point
     the user may enter ‘e’ to re-edit the sudoers file, ‘x’ to exit without saving the changes,
     or ‘Q’ to quit and save changes.  The ‘Q’ option should be used with extreme care because if
     visudo believes there to be a parse error, so will sudo and no one will be able to run sudo
     again until the error is fixed.  If ‘e’ is typed to edit the sudoers file after a parse
     error has been detected, the cursor will be placed on the line where the error occurred (if
     the editor supports this feature).

     The options are as follows:

     -c, --check
                 Enable check-only mode.  The existing sudoers file will be checked for syntax
                 errors, owner and mode.  A message will be printed to the standard output
                 describing the status of sudoers unless the -q option was specified.  If the
                 check completes successfully, visudo will exit with a value of 0.  If an error
                 is encountered, visudo will exit with a value of 1.

     -f sudoers, --file=sudoers
                 Specify an alternate sudoers file location.  With this option, visudo will edit
                 (or check) the sudoers file of your choice, instead of the default,
                 /etc/sudoers.  The lock file used is the specified sudoers file with “.tmp”
                 appended to it.  In check-only mode only, the argument to -f may be ‘-’, indi‐
                 cating that sudoers will be read from the standard input.

     -h, --help  Display a short help message to the standard output and exit.

     -q, --quiet
                 Enable quiet mode.  In this mode details about syntax errors are not printed.
                 This option is only useful when combined with the -c option.

     -s, --strict
                 Enable strict checking of the sudoers file.  If an alias is used before it is
                 defined, visudo will consider this a parse error.  Note that it is not possible
                 to differentiate between an alias and a host name or user name that consists
                 solely of uppercase letters, digits, and the underscore (‘_’) character.

     -V, --version
                 Print the visudo and sudoers grammar versions and exit.

     -x output_file, --export=output_file
                 Export a sudoers in JSON format and write it to output_file.  If output_file is
                 ‘-’, the exported sudoers policy will be written to the standard output.  By
                 default, /etc/sudoers (and any files it includes) will be exported.  The -f
                 option can be used to specify a different sudoers file to export.  The exported
                 format is intended to be easier for third-party applications to parse than the
                 traditional sudoers format.  The various values have explicit types which
                 removes much of the ambiguity of the sudoers format.

   Debugging and sudoers plugin arguments
     visudo versions 1.8.4 and higher support a flexible debugging framework that is configured
     via Debug lines in the sudo.conf(5) file.

     Starting with sudo 1.8.12, visudo will also parse the arguments to the sudoers plugin to
     override the default sudoers path name, UID, GID and file mode.  These arguments, if
     present, should be listed after the path to the plugin (i.e. after sudoers.so).  Multiple
     arguments may be specified, separated by white space.  For example:

           Plugin sudoers_policy sudoers.so sudoers_mode=0400

     The following arguments are supported:

     sudoers_file=pathname
               The sudoers_file argument can be used to override the default path to the sudoers
               file.

     sudoers_uid=uid
               The sudoers_uid argument can be used to override the default owner of the sudoers
               file.  It should be specified as a numeric user ID.

     sudoers_gid=gid
               The sudoers_gid argument can be used to override the default group of the sudoers
               file.  It must be specified as a numeric group ID (not a group name).

     sudoers_mode=mode
               The sudoers_mode argument can be used to override the default file mode for the
               sudoers file.  It should be specified as an octal value.

     For more information on configuring sudo.conf(5), please refer to its manual.

ENVIRONMENT
     The following environment variables may be consulted depending on the value of the editor
     and env_editor sudoers settings:

     VISUAL           Invoked by visudo as the editor to use

     EDITOR           Used by visudo if VISUAL is not set

FILES
     /etc/sudo.conf            Sudo front end configuration

     /etc/sudoers              List of who can run what

     /etc/sudoers.tmp          Lock file for visudo

DIAGNOSTICS
     In addition to reporting sudoers parse errors, visudo may produce the following messages:

     sudoers file busy, try again later.
           Someone else is currently editing the sudoers file.

     /etc/sudoers.tmp: Permission denied
           You didn't run visudo as root.

     you do not exist in the passwd database
           Your user ID does not appear in the system passwd database.

     {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias referenced but not defined
           Either you are trying to use an undeclared {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias or you have a
           user or host name listed that consists solely of uppercase letters, digits, and the
           underscore (‘_’) character.  In the latter case, you can ignore the warnings (sudo
           will not complain).  The message is prefixed with the path name of the sudoers file
           and the line number where the undefined alias was used.  In -s (strict) mode these are
           errors, not warnings.

     unused {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias
           The specified {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias was defined but never used.  The message is
           prefixed with the path name of the sudoers file and the line number where the unused
           alias was defined.  You may wish to comment out or remove the unused alias.

     cycle in {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias
           The specified {User,Runas,Host,Cmnd}_Alias includes a reference to itself, either
           directly or through an alias it includes.  The message is prefixed with the path name
           of the sudoers file and the line number where the cycle was detected.  This is only a
           warning unless visudo is run in -s (strict) mode as sudo will ignore cycles when pars‐
           ing the sudoers file.

     unknown defaults entry "name"
           The sudoers file contains a Defaults variable not recognized by visudo.

     /etc/sudoers: input and output files must be different
           The -x flag was used and the specified output_file has the same path name as the
           sudoers file to export.

CAVEATS
     There is no easy way to prevent a user from gaining a root shell if the editor used by
     visudo allows shell escapes.
