## π§ About the Vulnerability
**CVE-2025-32463** is a local privilege escalation vulnerability affecting `sudo` versions **1.9.14 to 1.9.17**.
The flaw resides in the way `sudo` handles the `--chroot` (`-R`) option introduced in 1.9.14. It allows an unprivileged user to craft a fake `nsswitch.conf` inside a controlled chroot path, forcing `sudo` (running as root) to load an arbitrary **NSS library** and execute code as root.
