Todd Miller reports :

Sudo’s command matching routine expects actual commands to include one or more slash (β€˜/’) characters. The flaw is that sudo’s path resolution code did not add a β€˜./’ prefix to commands found in the current working directory. This creates an ambiguity between a β€˜sudoedit’ command found in the cwd and the β€˜sudoedit’ pseudo-command in the sudoers file. As a result, a user may be able to run an arbitrary command named β€˜sudoedit’ in the current working directory.
For the attack to be successful, the PATH environment variable must include β€˜.’ and may not include any other directory that contains a β€˜sudoedit’ command.
