=========================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1046-1 January 20, 2011 sudo vulnerability CVE-2011-0010 =========================================================== A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 9.10 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Ubuntu 10.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 9.10: sudo 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.6 sudo-ldap 1.7.0-1ubuntu2.6 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: sudo 1.7.2p1-1ubuntu5.3 sudo-ldap 1.7.2p1-1ubuntu5.3 Ubuntu 10.10: sudo 1.7.2p7-1ubuntu2.1 sudo-ldap 1.7.2p7-1ubuntu2.1 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. Details follow: Alexander Kurtz discovered that sudo would not prompt for a password when a group was specified in the Runas_Spec. A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as the specified group if sudo was configured to allow the attacker to use a program as this group. The group Runas_Spec is not used in the default installation of Ubuntu.
