Debian LTS Advisory DLA-2670-1 addresses several vulnerabilities in the openldap package. Users are urged to apply the update for enhanced security.
Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Samba, SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix

Summary


CVE-2019-10218

A flaw was found in the samba client, where a malicious server can
supply a pathname to the client with separators. This could allow
the client to access files and folders outside of the SMB network
pathnames. An attacker could use this vulnerability to create
files outside of the current working directory using the
privileges of the client user.

CVE-2019-14833

A flaw was found in Samba, in the way it handles a user password
change or a new password for a samba user. The Samba Active
Directory Domain Controller can be configured to use a custom
script to check for password complexity. This configuration can
fail to verify password complexity when non-ASCII characters are
used in the password, which could lead to weak passwords being set
for samba users, making it vulnerable to dictionary attacks.

CVE-2019-14847

A flaw was found in samba where an attacker can crash AD DC LDAP
