Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0042 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0042 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The sudoedit personality of Sudo before 1.9.5 may allow a local unprivileged user to perform arbitrary directory-existence tests by winning a sudo_edit.c race condition in replacing a user-controlled directory by a symlink to an arbitrary path. (CVE-2021-23239). selinux_edit_copy_tfiles in sudoedit in Sudo before 1.9.5 allows a local unprivileged user to gain file ownership and escalate privileges by replacing a temporary file with a symlink to an arbitrary file target. This affects SELinux RBAC support in permissive mode. Machines without SELinux are not vulnerable. (CVE-2021-23240). Affected Software/OS: 'sudo' package(s) on Mageia 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.4 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
