This is certainly a bug, but kdesudo is just a wrapper around sudo.
While it does expand the arguments incorrectly, this isn't exploitable
short of tricking someone to run kdesudo on a huge weird-looking
commandline that would just fail anyway since glibc would block any use
of %n. Unflagged as security.
