+This rule detects potential sudo token manipulation attacks through process injection by monitoring the use of a 
+debugger (gdb) process followed by a successful uid change event during the execution of the sudo process. A sudo token 
+manipulation attack is performed by injecting into a process that has a valid sudo token, which can then be used by
+attackers to activate their own sudo token. This attack requires ptrace to be enabled in conjunction with the existence 
+of a living process that has a valid sudo token with the same uid as the current user.
