- Update to 1.9.5.p1
* Fixed a regression introduced in sudo 1.9.5 where the editor run
by sudoedit was set-user-ID root unless SELinux RBAC was in use.
The editor is now run with the user's real and effective user-IDs.
- News in 1.9.5
* Fixed a crash introduced in 1.9.4 when running "sudo -i" as an
unknown user. This is related to but distinct from Bug #948.
* If the "lecture_file" setting is enabled in sudoers, it must now
refer to a regular file or a symbolic link to a regular file.
* Fixed a potential use-after-free bug in sudo_logsrvd when the
server shuts down if there are existing connections from clients
that are only logging events and not session I/O data.
* Fixed a buffer size mismatch when serializing the list of IP
addresses for configured network interfaces. This bug is not
actually exploitable since the allocated buffer is large enough
to hold the list of addresses.
* If sudo is executed with a name other than "sudo" or "sudoedit",
it will now fall back to "sudo" as the program name. This affects
warning, help and usage messages as well as the matching of Debug
lines in the /etc/sudo.conf file. Previously, it was possible
for the invoking user to manipulate the program name by setting
argv[0] to an arbitrary value when executing sudo.
* Sudo now checks for failure when setting the close-on-exec flag
on open file descriptors. This should never fail but, if it
were to, there is the possibility of a file descriptor leak to
a child process (such as the command sudo runs).
* Fixed CVE-2021-23239, a potential information leak in sudoedit
that could be used to test for the existence of directories not
normally accessible to the user in certain circumstances. When
creating a new file, sudoedit checks to make sure the parent
