sudo does not call pam_close_session() or pam_end() correctly on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • When configured to use the "session" function of a PAM module, sudo calls pam_open_session(), but never calls pam_close_session() or pam_end() to close the session. This may prevent PAM modules from working correctly.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2
