Description Zombie Ryushu 2017-06-01 08:50:47 CEST
The Qualys Security team discovered that sudo, a program designed to
provide limited super user privileges to specific users, does not
properly parse "/proc/[pid]/stat" to read the device number of the tty
from field 7 (tty_nr). A sudoers user can take advantage of this flaw on
an SELinux-enabled system to obtain full root privileges.
