Security Fix(es):
* It was found that the original fix for CVE-2017-1000367 was incomplete. A
flaw was found in the way sudo parsed tty information from the process
status file in the proc filesystem. A local user with privileges to execute
commands via sudo could use this flaw to escalate their privileges to root.
