CVE-2023-28487 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2023-03-22 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
Sudo before 1.9.13 does not escape control characters in sudoreplay output.
CVE-2023-28486 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2023-03-22 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
Sudo before 1.9.13 does not escape control characters in log messages.
CVE-2023-27320 2 Fedoraproject, Sudo Project 2 Fedora, Sudo 2023-03-18 N/A 7.2 HIGH
Sudo before 1.9.13p2 has a double free in the per-command chroot feature.
CVE-2023-22809 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Sudo Project 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Sudo 2023-02-04 N/A 7.8 HIGH
In Sudo before 1.9.12p2, the sudoedit (aka -e) feature mishandles extra arguments passed in the user-provided environment variables (SUDO_EDITOR, VISUAL, and EDITOR), allowing a local attacker to append arbitrary entries to the list of files to process. This can lead to privilege escalation. Affected versions are 1.8.0 through 1.9.12.p1. The problem exists because a user-specified editor may contain a "--" argument that defeats a protection mechanism, e.g., an EDITOR='vim -- /path/to/extra/file' value.
CVE-2017-1000367 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2022-12-22 6.9 MEDIUM 6.4 MEDIUM
Todd Miller's sudo version 1.8.20 and earlier is vulnerable to an input validation (embedded spaces) in the get_process_ttyname() function resulting in information disclosure and command execution.
CVE-2022-43995 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2022-12-05 N/A 7.1 HIGH
Sudo 1.8.0 through 1.9.12, with the crypt() password backend, contains a plugins/sudoers/auth/passwd.c array-out-of-bounds error that can result in a heap-based buffer over-read. This can be triggered by arbitrary local users with access to Sudo by entering a password of seven characters or fewer. The impact could vary depending on the system libraries, compiler, and processor architecture.
CVE-2021-23239 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Netapp and 1 more 6 Debian Linux, Fedora, Cloud Backup and 3 more 2022-11-08 1.9 LOW 2.5 LOW
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-2021-3156 8 Beyondtrust, Debian, Fedoraproject and 5 more 27 Privilege Management For Mac, Privilege Management For Unix\/linux, Debian Linux and 24 more 2022-09-02 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
Sudo before 1.9.5p2 contains an off-by-one error that can result in a heap-based buffer overflow, which allows privilege escalation to root via "sudoedit -s" and a command-line argument that ends with a single backslash character.
CVE-2019-14287 7 Canonical, Debian, Fedoraproject and 4 more 15 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Fedora and 12 more 2022-04-18 9.0 HIGH 8.8 HIGH
In Sudo before 1.8.28, an attacker with access to a Runas ALL sudoer account can bypass certain policy blacklists and session PAM modules, and can cause incorrect logging, by invoking sudo with a crafted user ID. For example, this allows bypass of !root configuration, and USER= logging, for a "sudo -u \#$((0xffffffff))" command.
CVE-2021-23240 3 Fedoraproject, Netapp, Sudo Project 4 Fedora, Hci Management Node, Solidfire and 1 more 2021-09-13 4.4 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
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-2002-0184 2 Debian, Sudo Project 2 Debian Linux, Sudo 2021-04-01 7.2 HIGH N/A
Sudo before 1.6.6 contains an off-by-one error that can result in a heap-based buffer overflow that may allow local users to gain root privileges via special characters in the -p (prompt) argument, which are not properly expanded.
CVE-2016-7076 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2020-09-30 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
sudo before version 1.8.18p1 is vulnerable to a bypass in the sudo noexec restriction if application run via sudo executed wordexp() C library function with a user supplied argument. A local user permitted to run such application via sudo with noexec restriction could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges.
CVE-2005-4890 3 Debian, Redhat, Sudo Project 4 Debian Linux, Shadow, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2020-08-18 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
There is a possible tty hijacking in shadow 4.x before 4.1.5 and sudo 1.x before 1.7.4 via "su - user -c program". The user session can be escaped to the parent session by using the TIOCSTI ioctl to push characters into the input buffer to be read by the next process.
CVE-2019-18634 2 Debian, Sudo Project 2 Debian Linux, Sudo 2020-02-07 4.6 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
In Sudo before 1.8.26, if pwfeedback is enabled in /etc/sudoers, users can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow in the privileged sudo process. (pwfeedback is a default setting in Linux Mint and elementary OS; however, it is NOT the default for upstream and many other packages, and would exist only if enabled by an administrator.) The attacker needs to deliver a long string to the stdin of getln() in tgetpass.c.
CVE-2019-18684 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2019-11-08 6.9 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
** DISPUTED ** Sudo through 1.8.29 allows local users to escalate to root if they have write access to file descriptor 3 of the sudo process. This occurs because of a race condition between determining a uid, and the setresuid and openat system calls. The attacker can write "ALL ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" to /proc/#####/fd/3 at a time when Sudo is prompting for a password. NOTE: This has been disputed due to the way Linux /proc works. It has been argued that writing to /proc/#####/fd/3 would only be viable if you had permission to write to /etc/sudoers. Even with write permission to /proc/#####/fd/3, it would not help you write to /etc/sudoers.
CVE-2017-1000368 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2019-05-29 7.2 HIGH 8.2 HIGH
Todd Miller's sudo version 1.8.20p1 and earlier is vulnerable to an input validation (embedded newlines) in the get_process_ttyname() function resulting in information disclosure and command execution.
CVE-2014-9680 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2018-01-04 2.1 LOW 3.3 LOW
sudo before 1.8.12 does not ensure that the TZ environment variable is associated with a zoneinfo file, which allows local users to open arbitrary files for read access (but not view file contents) by running a program within an sudo session, as demonstrated by interfering with terminal output, discarding kernel-log messages, or repositioning tape drives.
CVE-2015-8239 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2017-11-05 6.9 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
The SHA-2 digest support in the sudoers plugin in sudo after 1.8.7 allows local users with write permissions to parts of the called command to replace them before it is executed.
CVE-2015-5602 1 Sudo Project 1 Sudo 2016-12-07 7.2 HIGH N/A
sudoedit in Sudo before 1.8.15 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a file whose full path is defined using multiple wildcards in /etc/sudoers, as demonstrated by "/home/*/*/file.txt."
