Hello Michael,

 

have you read about this?

 

As has recently become known, a critical vulnerability exists on common
Linux systems that allows local users to gain administrator rights. This
vulnerability exists due to a so-called "heap overflow" in the sudo
programme, which runs with elevated permissions.

 

Detailed information can be found at:

Do you know something about an ETA für an patched versions for centos?

 

Best regards,

Dirk
