------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4692-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Markus Koschany July 21, 2026 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : samba Version : 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u8 CVE ID : CVE-2026-2340 CVE-2026-3012 CVE-2026-3238 CVE-2026-4408 CVE-2026-4480

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in Samba, a SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix, which might result in bypass of access checks, overwrite of files in unintended situations using the WORM vfs module, installing CA certificates over http without verification when auto-enrollment GPO is enabled, denial of service or remote code execution.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your samba packages.

For the detailed security status of samba please refer to its security tracker page at:
