Linux's Sudo Just Got Schooled
Imagine typing 'sudo' and suddenly, bam, you're root. No password, no questions. That's not a feature—it's a flaw. And it's real.
Two critical vulnerabilities in Sudo are letting local users escalate to root faster than you can say 'I promise I'm not a hacker.' Major Linux distros are in the splash zone.
- • Who's affected? If you're using Linux, look in the mirror.
- • How bad is it? 'All your base are belong to us' bad.
- • Patch status? Rolling out faster than a distro hopper's OS choices.
