Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in sudo: A a patch for parse.c in sudo does not properly interpret a system group in the sudoers file during authorization decisions for a user who belongs to that group, which allows local users to leverage an applicable sudoers file and gain root privileges via a sudo command. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2009-0034 regression . check.c in sudo 1.7.x before 1.7.4p5, when a Runas group is configured, does not require a password for command execution that involves a gid change but no uid change, which allows local users to bypass an intended authentication requirement via the -g option to a sudo command . Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program
