+ <background>
+ <p>sudo allows a system administrator to give users the ability to run commands as other users.</p>

+ <description>
+ <p>In certain password input handling, sudo incorrectly assumes the password input is at least nine bytes in size, leading to a heap buffer overread.</p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>In the worst case, the heap buffer overread can result in the denial of service of the sudo process.</p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All sudo users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-admin/sudo-1.9.12-r1"
+ </code>
