Local Privilege Escalation via host option
www.sudo.ws
external-link
Sudo’s host (-h or --host) option is intended to be used in conjunction with the list option (-l or --list) to list a user’s sudo privileges on a host other than the current one. However, due to a bug it was not restricted to listing privileges and could be used when running a command via sudo or editing a file with sudoedit. Depending on the rules present in the sudoers file this could allow a local privilege escalation attack.
