+ <title>Samba: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Samba is vulnerable to a buffer overflow that could lead to execution of
+ arbitrary code (CAN-2004-0882). Another flaw in Samba may allow a remote
+ attacker to cause a Denial of Service by excessive consumption of CPU
+ cycles (CAN-2004-0930).

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Samba is a freely available SMB/CIFS implementation which allows
+ seamless interoperability of file and print services to other SMB/CIFS
+ clients.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Samba fails to do proper bounds checking when handling
+ TRANSACT2_QFILEPATHINFO replies. Additionally an input validation flaw
+ exists in ms_fnmatch.c when matching filenames that contain wildcards.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code with the permissions
+ of the user running Samba. A remote attacker may also be able to cause
+ an abnormal consumption of CPU resources, resulting in slower
+ performance of the server or even a Denial of Service.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Samba users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-fs/samba-3.0.8"</code>
+ </resolution>
