SA38292

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38292/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in sudosh3, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
"replay()" function in src/replay.c, which can be exploited to cause
a stack-based buffer overflow by tricking another user (usually with
"root" privileges) into replaying a specially crafted recorded
session.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.2.0. Other versions may
also be affected,

SOLUTION:
Do not replay untrusted recorded sessions.
