Major changes between version 1.7.4p4 and 1.7.4p5:

    * A bug has been fixed that would allow a command to be run without the user entering a password when sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag.

    * If user has no supplementary groups, sudo will now fall back on checking the group file explicitly, which restores historic sudo behavior.

    * A crash has been fixed when sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag and the sudoers file contains an entry with no runas user or group listed.

    * A bug has been fixed in the I/O logging support that could cause visual artifacts in full-screen programs such as text editors,.

    * A crash has been fixed when the Solaris project support is enabled and sudo's -g flag is used without the -u flag.

    * Sudo no longer exits with an error when support for auditing is compiled in but auditing is not enabled.

    * Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.7.3 where the ticket file was not being honored when the "targetpw" sudoers Defaults option was enabled.

    * The LOG_INPUT and LOG_OUTPUT tags in sudoers are now parsed correctly.

    * A crash has been fixed in "sudo -l" when sudo is built with auditing support and the user is not allowed to run any commands on the host.

1.7.4p5 fixes a bug that would allow a user to run a command with their own user ID but with a different group without entering a password. The bug only affects sudoers entries that include a Runas_Group as part of the rule and affects user authentication only. Please see the http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/alerts/runas_group_pw.html (security alert) for more details if you are using that feature. CVE CVE-2011-0010
