This update for sudo fixes the following issues :

A Heap-based buffer overflow in sudo could be exploited to allow a user to gain root privileges [bsc#1181090,CVE-2021-3156]

It was possible for a user to test for the existence of a directory due to a Race Condition in sudoedit [bsc#1180684,CVE-2021-23239]

A Possible Symlink Attack vector existed in sudoedit if SELinux was running in permissive mode [bsc#1180685, CVE-2021-23240]

It was possible for a User to enable Debug Settings not Intended for them [bsc#1180687]

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
