64d26ed806b78f1b66f52278ea929c7c037d7db811b81866bdff928a6b17c6fbUbuntu Security Notice 956-1 - Evan Broder and Anders Kaseorg discovered that sudo did not properly sanitize its environment when configured to use secure_path (the default in Ubuntu). A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as root if sudo was configured to allow the attacker to use a program that interpreted the PATH environment variable.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

This could possibly lead to certain intended restrictions being bypassed, such as the secure_path setting.
