Todd Miller reports :

When sudo performs its command matching, there is a special case for pseudo-commands in the sudoers file (currently, the only pseudo-command is sudoedit). Unlike a regular command, pseudo-commands do not begin with a slash (β€˜/’). The flaw is that sudo’s the matching code would only check against the list of pseudo-commands if the user-specified command also contained no slashes. As a result, if the user ran β€˜sudo ./sudoedit’ the normal matching code path was followed, which uses stat(2) to verify that the user-specified command matches the one in sudoers. In this case, it would compare the β€˜./sudoedit’ specified by the user with β€˜sudoedit’ from the sudoers file, resulting in a positive match.
