sudo allows a system administrator to give users the ability to run
|
|
commands as other users.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Harald Koenig discovered that sudo incorrectly handles group
|
|
specifications in Runas_Alias (and related) entries when a group is
|
|
specified in the list (using %group syntax, to allow a user to run
|
|
commands as any member of that group) and the user is already a member
|
|
of that group.
|
|
</p>
|

|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could possibly run commands as an arbitrary system
|
|
user (including root).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All sudo users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-admin/sudo-1.7.0"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
