Public bug reported:
When I use the new (24.04) settings and 'Online Accounts' to connect to
Microsoft 365, it authenticates, works well for about 5 minutes and then
disconnects.
I have to remove that account and redo it every time I want to use it.

I had successfully opened settings and used it to change some of the desktop

Then I clicked on "Users" and ubuntu-settings crashed.
Since then, I am unable to open ubuntu-settings - it will open and flash up on

I *might* have a possible clue for the gdebi gui crash in Bionic.
If I right click on a .deb file and tell it to install with gdebi the gui will
crash.
If I open a terminal in the same directory as the file and launch gdebi-gtk
*.deb the gui will install and uninstall the .deb file without crash
It looks like sudo 1.8.12 made it into 15.10 finally. Excellent. Apple
went the other route and locked the clock back down.

This turned out to be a problem with the user not being in the audio and
pulse-access groups. Also the back panel speaker out only has one
channel working, however the front panel headphone connector works fine.
So I just use the front panel headphone jack.

Congratulations, Ubuntu team. You have now fallen behind *Debian's
Stable Release* in a security update to sudo, despite several releases
in between. They even released their newest (24 month development cycle)
in the same month as you. This has been fixed, *fully fixed*, for over a
year now. Epic
Really? If the terminal I last ran sudo in is open still on the machine,
and it's unlocked, I couldn't simply change the time back to the
previous sudo command an escalate?
Even if it's a remote chance, it's still an easy exploit.
/var/log/auth.log is certainly readable by a program that uses a

They haven't fixed it because they were never vulnerable: they don't
allow you to change the clock without a password.

Tyler,
it's great that this bug will be fixed. However, I have some concerns about the
mitigations factors.
1) Timestamp: Easily found in the auth.log, and easily bypassed due to
an unlocked clock.
2) TTY: The tty of the first gnome-terminal running is (as far as I can
tell) /dev/pts/0. That's p
Notice that only the SID changed though. That gives me a 1 in 32k
chance, and I can generate them basically at will with setsid. In my
testing so far, the inode of the TTY file for /dev/pts/0 has stayed "3"
across several reboots. If it doesn't change, then it is moot from a
security standpoint.
To clarify: I reboot, log in, open gnome-terminal. The tty is always
/dev/pts/0, and ls -i /dev/pts/0 shows an inode of 3. This occurs even
if I shut down and power back on, though admittedly in a VM.

When I tried this on 15.04, the tty and inode didnt: only the SID
changed. Closing a gnome-terminal and reopening it got the same tty and
SID. For *additional* terminals, they got new ttys and inodes, but if

that was in a crappy VM with 1 core and 30% CPU being used by compiz. I
haven't gotten it to pop an escalated shell yet, but I'll poke at it
more tonight after work.

Indeed. Trojaning those requires waiting for the user. Why lay a trap
and wait when you can just break down the door? If I can use dogtail or
similar to automate the clock and suddenly we're in drive-by territory.

Kay, the update to sudo (1.8.10) actually solves this by using the
monotonic clock. All that needs to happen is for Ubuntu to udpate to it.

Oh, nevermind! You're talking about outside of the sudo instance. In the
case of Cron, etc: just let *the user* decide whether they want to be
asked after the first time. Make it an option to unlock the clock,
disabled by default but still available.

Wow. Yeah, that'll make exploiting this *much* easier on desktop.
Fortunately Ubuntu Server doesn't allow this without authenticating.
