2026-05-29 01:50:26 +00:00 | 17 commits to main since this releasesudo_runas_neg1 and sudoedit_editor's detect() bodies invoked
'sudo -ln' (intending list + non-interactive). Some sudoers / PAM
configurations have been observed prompting for a password anyway
when the flags are bundled. That meant skeletonkey --auto --i-know
could hang on a sudo password prompt during the corpus scan — bad
ergonomics for an LPE tool whose whole point is to get root without
already having it.Fix: write '-n -l' as separate flags, redirect stdin from /dev/null
so sudo cannot fall back to reading the tty even if PAM tries to
coerce one. Belt-and-suspenders against any tty prompt during --auto.Downloads
