CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT 
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PACKAGE   : samba
SUMMARY   : Remote vulnerability and local race condition
DATE      : 2003-04-04 16:00:00
ID        : CLA-2003:615
RELEVANT
RELEASES  : 6.0, 7.0, 8

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION
 Samba provides SMB/CIFS services (such as file and printer sharing)
 used by clients compatible with Microsoft Windows(TM).
 
 The SuSE Security Team performed a security audit in parts of the
 Samba project code and found various problems in both the client and
 server implementations. Among these problems is a buffer overflow[1]
 vulnerability in the packet fragment re-assembly code. A remote
 attacker who is able to connect to the samba server may gain root
 privileges on it by exploiting this vulnerability.
 
 The vulnerability also affects the client library code, thus it is
 possible to exploit applications which use samba library functions by
 using a malicious samba server to send traffic to them.
 
 Additionally, a race condition[2] was discovered which could allow a
 local attacker to overwrite critical system files.
 
 In Conectiva Linux versions 7.0 and 8 samba is being upgraded to the
 latest stable version: 2.2.8. This version fixes the above
 vulnerabilities and includes several other fixes and additional
 features[3]. In Conectiva Linux 6.0, a patch with fixes the above
 vulnerabilities was applied to the package originally distributed,
 keeping samba in its original version (2.0.9).


SOLUTION
 All samba users should upgrade their packages immediately. This
 update will automatically restart the samba service if it is already
 running.
