Not too dangerous, unless you grant sudo rights to too many people, but worrying enough: Ubuntu Security Notice USN-905-1:
sudo did not properly validate the path for the 'sudoedit' pseudo-command. A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as root if sudo was configured to allow the attacker to use sudoedit. The sudoedit pseudo-command is not used in the default installation of Ubuntu.
And another one, only a little bit more unnerving:
sudo did not reset group permissions when the 'runas_default' configuration option was used. A local attacker could exploit this to escalate group privileges if sudo was configured to allow the attacker to run commands under the runas_default account. The runas_default configuration option is not used in the default installation of Ubuntu.
