Descriptions

The command matching functionality in sudo 1.6.8 through 1.7.2p5 does not properly handle when a file in the current working directory has the same name as a pseudo-command in the sudoers file and the PATH contains an entry for ".", which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via a Trojan horse executable, as demonstrated using sudoedit, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0426.

El comando de funcionalidad matching en sudo v1.6.8 hasta v1.7.2p5 no maneja adecuadamente cuando un fichero en el directorio actual de trabajo tiene el mismo nombre que un pseudo-comando en el archivo dudoers y que contiene en la ruta una entrada para ".", lo que permite a usuarios locales ejecutar comandos de su elección a través de un troyano ejecutable, como ha sido demostrado usando sudoedit, una vulnerabilidad diferente que CVE-2010-0426.
