Red Hat Security Advisory 2015-1409-01 - The sudo packages contain the sudo utility which allows system administrators to provide certain users with the permission to execute privileged commands, which are used for system management purposes, without having to log in as root. It was discovered that sudo did not perform any checks of the TZ environment variable value. If sudo was configured to preserve the TZ environment variable, a local user with privileges to execute commands via sudo could possibly use this flaw to achieve system state changes not permitted by the configured commands.
