Naming is always a matter of preference, and the old name would certainly work, but I think the new one has the following advantages: - A verb is better than a noun. - The name more similar to "the competition", i.e. 'sudo', 'pkexec', 'runas', 'doas', which generally include an action verb. - The connection between 'systemd-run' and 'run0' is more obvious. There has been no release yet with the old name, so we can rename without caring for backwards compatibility.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>run0</command> may be used to temporarily and interactively acquire elevated or different
|
|
privileges. It serves a similar purpose as <citerefentry
|
|
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>sudo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, but
|
|
operates differently in a couple of key areas:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>No execution or security context credentials are inherited from the caller into the
|
|
invoked commands, as they are invoked from a fresh, isolated service forked off the service
|
|
manager.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>Authentication takes place via <ulink
|
|
url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/polkit">polkit</ulink>, thus isolating the
|
|
authentication prompt from the terminal (if possible).</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>An independent pseudo-tty is allocated for the invoked command, detaching its lifecycle and
|
|
isolating it for security.</para></listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>No SetUID/SetGID file access bit functionality is used for the implementation.</para></listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>Altogether this should provide a safer and more robust alternative to the <command>sudo</command>
|
|
mechanism, in particular in OS environments where SetUID/SetGID support is not available (for example by
|
|
setting the <varname>NoNewPrivileges=</varname> variable in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-system.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Any session invoked via <command>run0</command> will run through the
|
|
<literal>systemd-run0</literal> PAM stack.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that <command>run0</command> is implemented as an alternative multi-call invocation of
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-run</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
