Sudo 1.9.17p2

on GitHub

Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.9.16 that could result in sudo sending SIGHUP to all processes on the system in certain rare cases. The bug could manifest if sudo is running a command in a pseudo-terminal, sudo terminates the command due to an internal error, and the user's terminal is revoked. GitHub issue #458.

Fixed a bug introduced in sudo 1.9.12 that caused sudo to abort when the intercept and intercept_verify options are enabled in sudoers and either the command line arguments or the environment contains a string larger than the page size (usually 4096). This only Linux affects systems that support the ptrace_readv_string() function. GitHub issue #453.

Fixed a bug in sudo's configure script introduced in sudo 1.9.17 that prevented mdoc-format man pages from being used on systems without the mandoc utility. Bug #1077.
