One Must Now Use A sso.redhat.com URL When Uploading An SOS Report From The Command Line
Issue
-
When executing
sos report --upload --case-id=########
, one is no longer prompted for a user name and password. One is now presented with this text:Please visit the following URL to authenticate this device: https://sso.redhat.com/device?user_code=####-####
- This happens even if one has:
- defined the
SOSUPLOADUSER
andSOSUPLOADPASSWORD
shell environment variables, or - used the
--upload-user
and--upload-pass
command line options. (Note: those command line options are highly discouraged since other users on the system can runpgrep -fla sos
and see the plaintext password.)

Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (RHEL 8)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (RHEL 9)
