USN-928-1: Sudo vulnerability

Ubuntu 6572 Published by

A new Sudo vulnerability update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:



Ubuntu Security Notice USN-928-1 April 15, 2010
sudo vulnerability
https://launchpad.net/bugs/563963
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Ubuntu 8.10
Ubuntu 9.04
Ubuntu 9.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
sudo 1.6.8p12-1ubuntu6.2
sudo-ldap 1.6.8p12-1ubuntu6.2

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
sudo 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu3.7
sudo-ldap 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu3.7

Ubuntu 8.10:
sudo 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.3
sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.3

Ubuntu 9.04:
sudo 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2
sudo-ldap 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 9.10:
sudo 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2
sudo-ldap 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

Valerio Costamagna discovered that sudo did not properly validate the path
for the 'sudoedit' pseudo-command when the PATH contained only a dot ('.').
If secure_path and ignore_dot were disabled, a local attacker could exploit
this to execute arbitrary code as root if sudo was configured to allow the
attacker to use sudoedit. By default, secure_path is used and the sudoedit
pseudo-command is not used in Ubuntu. This is a different but related issue
to CVE-2010-0426.
