Major changes between sudo 1.9.17p1 and 1.9.17

 * Fixed CVE-2025-32462.  Sudo's -h (--host) option could be specified
   when running a command or editing a file.  This could enable a
   local privilege escalation attack if the sudoers file allows the
   user to run commands on a different host.  See
   https://www.sudo.ws/security/advisories/host_any/.

 * Fixed CVE-2025-32463.  An attacker can leverage sudo's -R
   (--chroot) option to run arbitrary commands as root, even if
   they are not listed in the sudoers file.  The chroot support has
   been deprecated an will be removed entirely in a future release.
   See https://www.sudo.ws/security/advisories/chroot_bug/.
