When using Huawei Cloud’s Vulnerability Scan Service (VSS) with a regular user account, the Linux system does not include regular users in the sudoers list by default (regular user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.):
- Log into the system and switch to root privileges.
- Enter #vi /etc/sudoers to open the sudoers configuration file.
- Append the following at the end of the configuration file: regular_username ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL, then enter :wq! to save the changes.
Notes:
- When using the VSS sudo privilege escalation scanning feature, the “Regular User Password” and “Sudo Password” fields in the authentication credentials section should be identical 鈥?both should be the password of the regular user.
