Slackware: 2023-311-01: sudo Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: patches/packages/sudo-1.9.15-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. The sudoers plugin has been modified to make it more resilient to ROWHAMMER attacks on authentication and policy matching. The sudoers plugin now constructs the user time stamp file path name using the user-ID instead of the user name. This avoids a potential problem with user names that contain a path separator ('/') being interpreted as part of the path name. For more information, see: https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-42465 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-42456 (* Security fix *)
