Fedora Core 5 Critical Advisory: Samba Denial Of Service Issues

Samba is the suite of programs by which a lot of PC-related machines

share files, printers, and other information (such as lists of

available files and printers). The Windows NT, OS/2, and Linux

operating systems support this natively, and add-on packages can

enable the same thing for DOS, Windows, VMS, UNIX of all kinds, MVS,

and more. This package provides an SMB server that can be used to

provide network services to SMB (sometimes called "Lan Manager")

clients. Samba uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT

need the NetBEUI (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol.

This release of Samba fixes some Serious security bugs:

- CVE-2007-2444

- CVE-2007-2446
