Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : samba (MDKSA-2004:136)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 15769

Synopsis

The remote Mandrake Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Steffan Esser discovered that invalid bounds checking in reply to certain trans2 requests could result in a buffer overrun in smbd. This can only be exploited by a malicious user able to create files with very specific Unicode filenames on a samba share.

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this problem.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
