Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.4.2012.0641.1
Category:SuSE Local Security Checks
Title:SUSE: Security Advisory (SUSE-SU-2012:0641-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo, sudo-debuginfo, sudo-debugsource' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0641-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo, sudo-debuginfo, sudo-debugsource' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0641-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
This update fixes a security problem in sudo:

Multiple netmask values used in Host / Host_List configuration caused any host to be allowed access.
(CVE-2012-2337)

Also a bug in wildcard matching could allow too relaxed matches within subdirectories of the specified path so
/usr/bin/* would also match /usr/bin/X11/*, which is probably not intended. The behaviour was aligned to the one described in the sudoers manpage
