   An update that solves four vulnerabilities and has one
   errata is now available. It includes one version update.

Description:


   This LTSS rollup update fixes the following security issues
   which allowed  to bypass the sudo authentication:

   *

   CVE-2013-1775: sudo allowed local users or
   physically-proximate attackers to bypass intended time
   restrictions and retain privileges without
   re-authenticating by setting the system clock and sudo user
   timestamp to the epoch.

   *

   CVE-2013-1776: sudo, when the tty_tickets option is
   enabled, did not properly validate the controlling terminal
   device, which allowed local users with sudo permissions to
   hijack the authorization of another terminal via vectors
   related to connecting to a standard input, output, and
   error file descriptors of another terminal.

   *

   CVE-2013-2776: sudo, when running on systems without
   /proc or the sysctl function with the tty_tickets option
   enabled, did not properly validate the controlling terminal
   device, which allowed local users with sudo permissions to
   hijack the authorization of another terminal via vectors
   related to connecting to a standard input, output, and
   error file descriptors of another terminal.

   *

   CVE-2013-2777: sudo, when the tty_tickets option is
   enabled, did not properly validate the controlling terminal
   device, which allowed local users with sudo permissions to
   hijack the authorization of another terminal via vectors
   related to a session without a controlling terminal device
   and connecting to a standard input, output, and error file
   descriptors of another terminal.

   Also a non-security bug was fixed:

   * set global ldap option before ldap init (bnc#760697)
