Why not escape spaces ?
-c \"show\ storagesubsystem\ profile;\"
I did a simple test:
As your shell will handle quoted strings , so if i do like this , it
will require a credential.
* sudo /tmp/test.cmd -c "this is an arg"
Password:
So if space is also escaped , it will work.
* sudo /tmp/test.cmd -c \"this\ is\ an\ arg\"
Args: -c "this is an arg"
==================
/tmp/test.cmd
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
echo "Args: $1 $2"
==================
sudoers
Cmnd_Alias TESTCMDS = /tmp/test.cmd -c "this is an arg"
username hostname = NOPASSWD: TESTCMDS
