Running on a server doesn't change anything, you'd need to be running on a server where you routinely give people who shouldn't have root access, access to an account with sudo privileges with a password. And be relying on your attacker to not say, simply put aliases into your shell, replace your shell, modify your path, add an LD_PRELOAD, ptrace your processes, etc.

That should be absolutely no one.
