Package        : sudo
CVE ID         : CVE-2025-32462

Rich Mirch discovered that sudo, a program designed to provide limited
super user privileges to specific users, does not correctly handle the
host (-h or --host) option. Due to a bug the host option was not
restricted to listing privileges only 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 the flaw might allow a local privilege
escalation attack.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.9.13p3-1+deb12u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your sudo packages.

For the detailed security status of sudo please refer to its security
tracker page at:
