Sudo has a bypass before 1.8.28, an attacker with access to a Runas ALL sudoer account can bypass certain policy blacklists and session PAM modules, and can cause incorrect logging, by invoking sudo with a crafted user ID. For example, this allows bypass of !root configuration, and USER= logging, for a "sudo -u #$((0xffffffff))" command.
This covers the install process. It adds capabilities for all Users in the system being able to perform this exploit.
