Insight
Insight
selinux_edit_copy_tfiles in sudoedit in Sudo before 1.9.5 allows a local unprivileged user to gain file ownership and escalate privileges by replacing a temporary file with a symlink to an arbitrary file target. This affects SELinux RBAC support in permissive mode. Machines without SELinux are not vulnerable.(CVE-2021-23240) The sudoedit personality of Sudo before 1.9.5 may allow a local unprivileged user to perform arbitrary directory-existence tests by winning a sudo_edit.c race condition in replacing a user-controlled directory by a symlink to an arbitrary path.(CVE-2021-23239) Sudo before 1.9.5p2 has a Heap-based Buffer Overflow, allowing privilege escalation to root via 'sudoedit -s' and a command-line argument that ends with a single backslash character.(CVE-2021-3156)
