According to the versions of the sudo package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :
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)
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)
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
