patches/packages/sudo-1.9.12p1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  Fixed a potential out-of-bounds write for passwords smaller than 8
  characters when passwd authentication is enabled.
  This does not affect configurations that use other authentication
  methods such as PAM, AIX authentication or BSD authentication.

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make
# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to
# leave one space after the ':'.

sudo: sudo (give limited root privileges to certain users)
sudo:
sudo: 'sudo' is a command that allows users to execute some commands as
sudo: root. The /etc/sudoers file (edited with 'visudo') specifies which
sudo: users have access to sudo and which commands they can run. 'sudo'
sudo: logs all its activities to /var/log/ so the system administrator
sudo: can keep an eye on things.
