remote code execution

Please Install the Updated Packages.

The Samba suite is an open-source implementatin of the SMB protocol. This update of samba fixes a buffer overflow in function send_mailslot() that allows remote attackers to overwrite the stack with 0 (via memset(3)) by sending specially crafted SAMLOGON packets. This bug can only be triggered if option &quot domain logon&quot is enabled.

samba on SUSE LINUX 10.1, openSUSE 10.2, openSUSE 10.3, SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, SUSE SLES 9, Novell Linux Desktop 9, Open Enterprise Server, Novell Linux POS 9, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 SP1, SLE SDK 10 SP1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1
