The version of sudo that Oracle bundles with Solaris 11.2, which is
based off of Sudo version 1.8.9p5, exposes a known bug in the Solaris
ksh binary.
Bug 18647317 - ksh cores on Solaris 11.1 SRU 16.5 and above
Steps to replicate
login to a server where your account home directory is locked down to
your account access, ie perms set to 0700
$ id
loginuser
$ sudo -u otheruser -s
$ id
otheruser
$ pwd
Bus Error
$ id
loginuser
The workaround of course is to use sudo -u otheruser -i
I am still waiting on Oracle to resolve Bug 18647317
