The Qualys Research Labs discovered a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in sudo, a program designed to provide limited super user privileges to specific users. Any local user (sudoers and non-sudoers) can exploit this flaw for root privilege escalation. For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.27-1+deb10u3. We recommend that you upgrade your sudo packages. For the detailed security status of sudo please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/sudo
