Category:	CentOS Local Security Checks
Title:	CentOS Update for sudo CESA-2014:0266 centos5
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The sudo (superuser do) utility allows system administrators to give certain users the ability to run commands as root. A flaw was found in the way sudo handled its blacklist of environment variables. When the 'env_reset' option was disabled, a user permitted to run certain commands via sudo could use this flaw to run such a command with one of the blacklisted environment variables set, allowing them to run an arbitrary command with the target user's privileges. (CVE-2014-0106) Note: This issue does not affect the default configuration of the sudo package as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Red Hat would like to thank Todd C. Miller for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Sebastien Macke as the original reporter. All sudo users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to correct this issue. Affected Software/OS: sudo on CentOS 5 Solution: Please install the updated packages. CVSS Score: 6.6 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
