| Critical (9) | 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) | May 28, 2008 | Jun 22, 2008 | Jul 1, 2008 |
Versions 3.0.0 through 3.0.29a (inclusive) of Samba, the Server Message Block protocol server are vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow due to a calculation error in the receive_smb_raw() function. An attacker could construct a malicious SMB packet to exploit the vulnerability and execute arbitrary code under the context of the Samba server user.
Upgrade to Samba 3.0.30
Download and apply the upgrade from: http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/old-versions/samba-3.0.30.tar.gz
