Fixes #9590: Block explicit sudo -S (stdin password mode) commands when the SUDO_PASSWORD environment variable is not configured. The attack vector: the LLM constructs 'echo guessedpass | sudo -S cmd' to brute-force sudo passwords, iterates based on sudo's error output ('Sorry, try again'). The existing _transform_sudo_command only injects -S when SUDO_PASSWORD exists; without it, the LLM's explicit sudo -S must be treated as a guessing attempt. Changes: - Add _check_sudo_stdin_guard() in approval.py: detects sudo -S when SUDO_PASSWORD is absent, anchored to command-start positions (^ ; && || | etc.) to avoid false positives on literal text - Integrate into check_all_command_guards() above yolo/mode=off so the block is unconditional (like the hardline floor) - Add 6 tests covering: detection, allow-list, SUDO_PASSWORD bypass, integration with check_all_command_guards, yolo non-bypass, container backend bypass
