Certain versions of Samba contain a flawed implementation of the process_logon_packet function in the nmbd daemon. As a result, an unauthenticated attacker can craft a corrupt SAM_UAS_CHANGE request that causes the nmbd daemon to crash. Note that in order for exploitation to be successful, domain logons must be enabled in the configuration file ("domain logons = yes" in smb.conf).
