-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2016-fe9112a9ff 2016-06-17 22:18:54.323655 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : sudo Product : Fedora 22 Version : 1.8.15 Release : 2.fc22 URL : http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/ Summary : Allows restricted root access for specified users Description : Sudo (superuser do) allows a system administrator to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root while logging all commands and arguments. Sudo operates on a per-command basis. It is not a replacement for the shell. Features include: the ability to restrict what commands a user may run on a per-host basis, copious logging of each command (providing a clear audit trail of who did what), a configurable timeout of the sudo command, and the ability to use the same configuration file (sudoers) on many different machines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: * removed INPUTRC from env_keep to prevent a possible info leak -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1339935 - readline: Possible info leak via INPUTRC https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1339935 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update sudo' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
