Synopsis ========
SUS contains a string format bug that could lead to local privilege escalation.
Background ==========
SUS is a utility that allows regular users to be able to execute certain commands as root.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-admin/sus < 2.0.2-r1 >= 2.0.2-r1
Description ===========
Leon Juranic found a bug in the logging functionality of SUS that can lead to local privilege escalation. A format string vulnerability exists in the log() function due to an incorrect call to the syslog() function.
Impact ======
An attacker with local user privileges can potentially exploit this vulnerability to gain root access.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All SUS users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge sync
