Subject: [PATCH] Improve _su
Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 15:26:21 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8CCEA689-98B4-4396-947E-A47AA7CDEE2E@dana.is> (raw)

I was looking at _su for workers/45410 and noticed a few things:

* Fetching the user's shell often doesn't work on macOS, because normal users
  don't appear in passwd; we can use Directory Service for this

* We try to use -s to set the shell even for implementations that don't
  support that; we should skip those

* For the getent passwd case, we weren't escaping the user name before passing
  it to eval

* For the non-getent passwd case, we were doing a prefix match on the user
  name (i don't think that was intended?)
