Discussion

"sudo" is a program designed to allow a system administrator to give limited root privileges to users and log root activity. The basic philosophy is to give as few privileges as possible but still allow system users to get their work done.

Check

Verify the TOSS 5 "sudo" package is installed using the following command:

$ sudo dnf list --installed sudo

Example output:

sudo.x86_64 1.9.5p2-7.el9

If the "sudo" package is not installed, this is a finding.

Fix

The "sudo" package can be installed using the following command:

$ sudo dnf install sudo
