A Samba security update has been released for Ubuntu Linux 4.10

==========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-41-1 December 17, 2004
samba vulnerability
CAN-2004-1154
==========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

samba

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 3.0.7-1ubuntu6.3. In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.



Details follow:

Greg MacManus discovered an integer overflow in Samba's smbd daemon. Requesting a very large number of access control descriptors from the server caused an integer overflow, which resulted in a memory allocation being too short, thus causing a buffer overflow. By sending carefully crafted data, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code on the server with full root permissions.
