EulerOS 2.0 SP2 : sudo (EulerOS-SA-2017-1121)

high Nessus Plugin ID 101309

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the sudo package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

- It was found that the original fix for CVE-2017-1000367 was incomplete. A flaw was found in the way sudo parsed tty information from the process status file in the proc filesystem. A local user with privileges to execute commands via sudo could use this flaw to escalate their privileges to root. (CVE-2017-1000368)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected sudo package.
