user privileges to specific users, does not clean the environment
sufficiently. The SHELLOPTS and PS4 variables are dangerous and are
still passed through to the program running as privileged user. This
can result in the execution of arbitrary commands as privileged user
when a bash script is executed. These vulnerabilities can only be
exploited by users who have been granted limited super user
privileges."
