[slackware-security] sudo

New sudo packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, and 13.37 to fix a
security issue.

Here are the details from the Slackware 13.37 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/sudo-1.7.10p8-i486-1_slack13.37.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue where if the env_reset option is disabled
in the sudoers file, a malicious user with sudo permissions may be able to
run arbitrary commands with elevated privileges by manipulating the
environment of a command the user is legitimately allowed to run.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)
