Detail
| This update removes the debug output which was left over in the update from DSA 596-1. For completeness below is the original advisory text: Liam Helmer noticed that sudo, a program that provides limited super user privileges to specific users, does not clean the environment sufficiently. Bash functions and the CDPATH variable are still passed through to the program running as privileged user, leaving possibilities to overload system routines. These vulnerabilities can only be exploited by users who have been granted limited super user privileges. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 1.6.6-1.3. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.6.8p3. We recommend that you upgrade your sudo package. |
