[slackware-security] samba (SSA:2009-177-01)

 

New samba packages are available for Slackware 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0, 12.0,

12.1, 12.2, and -current to fix security issues.

 

More details about the issues may be found in the Common

Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database:

 

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1888

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1886

 

 

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.2 ChangeLog:

+--------------------------+

patches/packages/samba-3.2.13-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz: Upgraded.

This upgrade fixes the following security issues:

o CVE-2009-1888:

In Samba 3.0.31 to 3.3.5 (inclusive), an uninitialized read of a

data value can potentially affect access control when "dos filemode"

is set to "yes".

o CVE-2009-1886:

In Samba 3.2.0 to 3.2.12 (inclusive), the smbclient commands dealing

with file names treat user input as a format string to asprintf.

With a maliciously crafted file name smbclient can be made

to execute code triggered by the server.

For more information, see:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1888

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1886

(* Security fix *)

Where to find the new packages:

+-----------------------------+

 

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?

Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site

for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading

directly from ftp.slackware.com.

 

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab

(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting

to the Slackware project! :-)

 

Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for

additional mirror sites near you.
