[quote]But let’s be honest here, this would be too easy for it to occur in the real world, except maybe for some easy-for-beginner CTFs[/quote] Never say never, I ran "peplive" (Peppermint OS Live), and no password is needed to run sudo (since this is usually used as a recovery medium, or to install the OS).
