> 1.9.5p2, CVE-2021-3156 > 1.8.26, CVE-2019-18634 > 1.8.0-to-1.9.12, CVE-2022-43995 interestingly these would not be a problem in a language like Pascal that is not memory safe, but has runtime bounds checks enabled by default or C++ that has flags to enable it So we are left with one over at least a 100 another interesting thing IMO is that the bugs have been sitting there for a long time, so they are probably not obvious and nobody can be sure there aren't similar sleeping bugs in today's software written in safer languages. This is not against memory-safe languages, mind you, I prefer Rust over C or C++ any day, I simply found that the original claim seemed too bold compared to the actual data and failed IMO to prove that sudo is ridden by easily exploitable memory bugs. |
