+ <background>
+ <p>sudo allows a system administrator to give users the ability to run
+ commands as other users. Access to commands may also be granted on a
+ range to hosts.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in sudo:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>sudo does not correctly validate the controlling terminal on a system
+ without /proc or when the tty_tickets option is enabled.
+ </li>
+ <li>sudo does not properly handle the clock when it is set to the epoch.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A local attacker with sudo privileges could connect to the stdin,
+ stdout, and stderr of the terminal of a user who has authenticated with
+ sudo, allowing the attacker to hijack the authorization of the other
+ user. Additionally, a local or physically proximate attacker could set
+ the system clock to the epoch, bypassing time restrictions on sudo
+ authentication.
+ </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-1.8.6_p7"
+ </code>
