Debian Security Advisory DSA-3440-1 [email protected]
https://www.debian.org/security/ Ben Hutchings
January 11, 2016 https://www.debian.org/security/faq
Package : sudo
CVE ID : CVE-2015-5602
Debian Bug : 804149
When sudo is configured to allow a user to edit files under a directory
that they can already write to without using sudo, they can actually
edit (read and write) arbitrary files. Daniel Svartman reported that a
configuration like this might be introduced unintentionally if the
editable files are specified using wildcards, for example:
operator ALL=(root) sudoedit /home/*/*/test.txt
The default behaviour of sudo has been changed so that it does not allow
editing of a file in a directory that the user can write to, or that is
reached by following a symlink in a directory that the user can write
to. These restrictions can be disabled, but this is strongly
discouraged.
For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.8.5p2-1+nmu3+deb7u1.
For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.8.10p3-1+deb8u3.
For the testing distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.8.15-1.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.8.15-1.1.
We recommend that you upgrade your sudo packages.
