+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in sudo:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>Evan
+    Broder and Anders Kaseorg of Ksplice, Inc. reported that the sudo
+    'secure path' feature does not properly handle multiple PATH variables
+    (CVE-2010-1646).</li>
+    <li>Markus Wuethrich of Swiss Post reported that
+    sudo fails to restrict access when using Runas groups and the group
+    (-g) command line option (CVE-2010-2956).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to gain the
+    ability to run certain commands with the privileges of other users,
+    including root, depending on the configuration.
+    </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 "&gt;=app-admin/sudo-1.7.4_p3-r1"</code>
