beroot is an extremely simple and barebones setuid-root helper. It may have lots of undiscovered vulnerabilities, so only use this if you know what you're doing.
- ability to interact with executables as uid 0
- asks for user password for authentication
- only allow users listed in config file and be in a specific group to use beroot
- allow morphing into some other user to run commands
- ....and lots more.
make && sudo make installwill automatically build and install beroot into /usr/bin.
If you wish to choose a separate prefix, pass DESTDIR into make install with absolute path to your directory.
