rsudoas is a reimplementation of doas from BSD made for Linux, though it might work in other *nix platforms.
It aims to be a secure and fast drop-in replacement written in Rust, with potential cross-platform support in the future.
Additionally a built-in shim is planned for sudo to ease migration from sudo to doas.
rsudoas is the name of the primary command for this project, it can be broken into these parts:
rs- Signifies that this is written in Rust.u- Ultimate, as-in the only privilege escalation tool you'll need.doas- A reference to the original doas.sudo- A "hidden" reference to the planned sudo shim.
If you find any security issues or have related concerns, please consider contacting me privately via e-mail.
Thanks to all of the authors of the crates on which this project depends on!
Special thanks to Duncaen for his fork of OpenDoas, it was heavily used as a reference during the initial development. It was also the first reason why I started this project when I found a "bug". P.S. @Duncaen I'm still waiting for you to accept my pull request to fix that!
Thanks to the people in ##rust at Libera Chat who helped me paitently to my sometimes overly enthusiastic line of enquiry.
And finally, thanks to sylvestre who got me started with Rust in the first place a few months back when I stumbled across a bug in uutils.
