✅ Remediation
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://images.redhat.com/ Workaround: To mitigate this issue, disable the ptrace-based intercept mode in the `sudoers` configuration. Add `Defaults !intercept` to `/etc/sudoers` or a file within `/etc/sudoers.d/`. This action may affect advanced `sudo` policy enforcement or logging features that rely on ptrace-based interception. Always validate `sudoers` file changes with `visudo` to prevent system lockout.
