Synopsis:	Critical: samba security and bug fix update
Issue date:	2007-12-10
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-6015

A stack buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Samba authenticates
remote users. A remote unauthenticated user could trigger this flaw to
cause the Samba server to crash, or execute arbitrary code with the
permissions of the Samba server. (CVE-2007-6015)

This update also fixes a regression caused by the fix for CVE-2007-4572,
which prevented some clients from being able to properly access shares.
