[Bug 1451274] [NEW] sudo does not check fdqn properly

 

Public bug reported:

As noted in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=731583,
from sudo 1.8.8 it does not correctly check fqdn for sudoers entries
that contain FQDN hostnames, or netgroups which contain FQDN entries
(which is fairly common, eg when using hostgroups with FreeIPA).

There is an upstream fix available (as noted on the Debian bug report)
which does resolve this problem. It does not appear to have been applied
to sudo as of 14.04.2 at least.
