Detail
A local user who has been granted permission to run commands via sudo could run arbitrary commands as a privileged user due to a flaw in sudo's pathname validation. This bug only affects configurations which have restricted user configurations prior to an ALL directive in the configuration file. A workaround is to move any ALL directives to the beginning of the sudoers file; see the advisory at http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/alerts/path_race.html for more information. For the old stable Debian distribution (woody), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.6-1.3woody1. For the current stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.8p7-1.1sarge1. For the unstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.8p9-1. The only change since DSA 735-1 is the addition of certain architectures which were not available in the original advisory. We recommend that you upgrade your sudo package. |

17396 | Sudo sudoers ALL Entry Race Condition Sudo contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue can be triggered by a user who already has some kind of sudo access, and they can leverage sudo to run arbitrary commands as other users. This flaw will most likely lead to a root compromise. |
