A flaw exists in the IP network matching code in sudo versions 1.6.9p3

even though it is not actually part of the network described by the
IP address and associated netmask listed in the sudoers file or in
LDAP. As a result, users authorized to run commands on certain IP
networks may be able to run commands on hosts that belong to other
networks not explicitly listed in sudoers (CVE-2012-2337
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.");
