vulnerability:
- Sudo 1.8.0 through 1.9.12, with the crypt() password backend, contains a plugins/sudoers/auth/passwd.c
array-out-of-bounds error that can result in a heap-based buffer over-read. This can be triggered by
arbitrary local users with access to Sudo by entering a password of seven characters or fewer. The impact
could vary depending on the system libraries, compiler, and processor architecture. (CVE-2022-43995)
