Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.841754 |
Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-2146-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the USN-2146-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'sudo' package(s) announced via the USN-2146-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Sebastien Macke discovered that Sudo incorrectly filtered environment variables when the env_reset option was disabled. A local attacker could use this issue to possibly run unintended commands by using environment variables that were intended to be blocked. In a default Ubuntu installation, the env_reset option is enabled by default. This issue only affected Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0106) It was discovered that the Sudo init script set a date in the past on existing timestamp files instead of using epoch to invalidate them completely. A local attacker could possibly modify the system time to attempt to reuse timestamp files. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 12.10 and Ubuntu 13.10. (LP: #1223297) Affected Software/OS: 'sudo' package(s) on Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 12.04, Ubuntu 12.10, Ubuntu 13.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.6 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C |
