MDVA-2009:086 : sudo

high Nessus Plugin ID 47923

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

The version of sudo shipped with 2009.1 has an incorrect path to /etc/ldap.conf compiled in. This means that users who have their sudo config supplied by their ldap server will find their rules no longer apply.

This updated package uses the correct /etc/ldap.conf file.

See http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/readme_ldap.html for more information on configuring sudo with ldap.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
