Hi Rootsh is a command that installs at /usr/bin/rootsh and is setuid root by debian package postinst script.
Usage: rootsh [[-a arg0] command [args...]] Without command it runs $SHELL, or /bin/sh unless $SHELL defined. "improvements" over becomeroot * Does not edit any files (/etc/sudoers), uninstall just removes /usr/bin/rootsh * Can run command directly with root privileges * Just needs 'r' 'o' <tab> <enter> to run on xterm window Dangerous tool it is, but powerful in capable hands (keep security in mind when using this tool).
