   An update that solves one vulnerability and has three fixes
   is now available.

Description:

   This update for sudo provides the following fix:

   Security issue fixed:

   - CVE-2019-14287: Fixed an issue where a user with sudo privileges that
     allowed them to run commands with an arbitrary uid, could run commands
     as root, despite being forbidden to do so in sudoers (bsc#1153674).

   Other issues fixed:

   - Cache resolved group names as calling getgrgid() is expensive and
     on systems connected to AD with many users, groups or sudo rules it
      causes sudo to take a long time to run (bsc#1068003).
   - Disable insults by default at build time. For new installations this was
     done via sudoers file, but when upgrading from previous versions it
     would accidentally be enabled (bsc#1053911).
   - Enable support for zlib compressed I/O logs (bsc#1058297).
