Subject:  [RHSA-2004:064-01] Updated samba packages fix security vulnerability
Date:  Wed, 18 Feb 2004 05:36 -0500

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated samba packages fix security vulnerability Advisory ID: RHSA-2004:064-01 Issue date: 2004-02-18 Updated on: 2004-02-18 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Keywords: smb Cross references: Obsoletes: CVE Names: CAN-2004-0082 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated Samba packages that fix a security vulnerability are now available. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: Samba provides file and printer sharing services to SMB/CIFS clients. The Samba team discovered an issue that affects version 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 of Samba. If an account for a user is created, but marked as disabled using the mksmbpasswd script, it is possible for Samba to overwrite the user's password with the contents of an uninitialized buffer. This might lead to a disabled account becoming enabled with a password that could be guessed by an attacker. Although this is likely to be a low risk issue for most Samba users, we have provided updated packages, which contain a backported patch correcting this issue. Red Hat would like to thank the Samba team for reporting this issue and providing us with a patch. Note: Due to a packaging error in samba-3.0.0-14.3E, the winbind daemon is not automatically restarted when the Samba package is upgraded. After up2date has installed the samba-3.0.2-4.3E packages, you must run "/sbin/service winbind condrestart" as root to restart the winbind daemon. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filenames] where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the desired RPMs. Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5.
