Synopsis

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

Description

Updated samba packages fix security vulnerabilities :

An uninitialized pointer use flaw was found in the Samba daemon (smbd). A malicious Samba client could send specially crafted netlogon packets that, when processed by smbd, could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running smbd (by default, the root user) (CVE-2015-0240).

Solution

Update the affected packages.
