Hy guys,

I have the following problem: I configured sudo rules with permission of everything except for a few commands to remove, reboot, shutdown, block from sudo to shell, preventing a user from elevating the privileges with the sudo -i command or change the password for example. But if it passes the command sudo vim and inside the editor pass: shell, it manages to elevate the privilege to root. Does anyone know of any way to block this command from within the editor?
