I can confirm this.
I'm not really sure how this fails, or why we didn't see it before. It would
seem to be a regression (by changelog inspection) 1.7.4p4-5ubuntu5 .
ec2-images have a custom /etc/sudoers. It takes the default sudoers (well, a
default from some point) and adds
|
| # ubuntu user is default user in ec2-images.
| # It needs passwordless sudo functionality.
| ubuntu ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
The images most certainly should use a sudoers.d entry, but I dont think
that this existed at some point in the past, or I wasn't aware of it.
Either way, this completely breaks instance as there is no other way
into root by default.
