Ubuntu Security Notice USN-235-2 - USN-235-1 fixed a vulnerability in sudo's handling of environment variables. Tavis Ormandy noticed that sudo did not filter out the PYTHONINSPECT environment variable, so that users with the limited privilege of calling a python script with sudo could still escalate their privileges.
