Here are the details from the Slackware 14.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/sudo-1.8.6p7-i486-1_slack14.0.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes security issues that could allow a user to run commands without authenticating after the password timeout has already expired. Note that the vulnerability did not permit a user to run commands other than those allowed by the sudoers policy.
