Yes. That's why this isn't a "these are exploits" list, but a "this is where you need to be careful" list.

If configured properly, it's safe, but there's a number of gotchas, like indirect privilege escalation through improper $PAGER: https://gtfobins.github.io/gtfobins/apt/

Exactly! GTFOBins is an educational tool, not an exploit list, in my opinion.
Hopefully, the "education" going on here is that whitelisting 'sudo' command lists is leaky as all hell, and that it is not to be relied on at all to keep a system safe from attack.
