[slackware-security] sudo (SSA:2015-047-03)
New sudo packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,
and -current to fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/sudo-1.8.12-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a potential security issue by only passing the TZ
environment variable it is considered safe. This prevents exploiting bugs
in glibc's TZ parser that could be used to read files that the user does
not have access to, or to cause a denial of service.
For more information, see:
http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/alerts/tz.html

(* Security fix *)
