This update for sudo fixes the following security issue:

  • CVE-2017-1000368: A follow-up fix to CVE-2017-1000367, the Linux process
    name could also contain a newline, which could be used to trick sudo to
    read/write to an arbitrary open terminal. (bsc#1042146)

Also the following non security bug was fixed:

  • Link the "system_group" plugin with sudo_util library to resolve the
    missing sudo_dso_findsym symbol (bsc#1034560)
