Security Fix(es):
* It was discovered that the sudo noexec restriction could have been
bypassed if application run via sudo executed system(), popen(), or
wordexp() C library functions with a user supplied argument. A local user
permitted to run such application via sudo with noexec restriction could
use these flaws to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges.
(CVE-2016-7032, CVE-2016-7076)
These issues were discovered by Florian Weimer (Red Hat).");
