Title:	Fedora: Security Advisory for sudo (FEDORA-2023-298c136eee)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo'; package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2023-298c136eee advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2023-298c136eee advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Sudo (superuser do) allows a system administrator to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root while logging all commands and arguments. Sudo operates on a per-command basis. It is not a replacement for the shell. Features include: the ability to restrict what commands a user may run on a per-host basis, copious logging of each command (providing a clear audit trail of who did what), a configurable timeout of the sudo command, and the ability to use the same configuration file (sudoers) on many different machines. Affected Software/OS: 'sudo' package(s) on Fedora 36. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
