Proposed as a Blocker for 37-final by Fedora user frantisekz using the blocker tracking app because: The release must contain no known security bugs of 'important' or higher impact according to the Red Hat severity classification scale which cannot be satisfactorily resolved by a package update (e.g. issues during installation). Is this satisfactorily resolved by a package update? Probably, proposing up for discussion. Also, impact is unclear, according to https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss/v3-calculator?name=CVE-2022-43995&vector=AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H&version=3.1&source=NIST : - Confidentiality Impact (C)*: High - Integrity Impact (I)*: None - Availability Impact (A)*: High
Is Fedora even affected by this bug? I am asking because Ubuntu states [1] that "sudo packages in Ubuntu are compiled with PAM support, so the vulnerable code isn't part of the binaries." I think the same is true for Fedora, see spec file [2]. [1]: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-43995 [2]: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/sudo/blob/f37/f/sudo.spec
Hello, this bugzilla is not relevant to fedora. We are not affected by this, can we close it?
I confirmed on my own reading that the affected code is not built in Fedora's sudo. Closing.
