-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] samba (SSA:2014-175-04) New samba packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/samba-4.1.9-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes bugs and security issues, including a flaw in Samba's internal DNS server which can be exploited to cause a denial of service, a flaw in SRV_SNAPSHOT_ARRAY that permits attackers to leverage configurations that use shadow_copy* for vfs objects to reveal potentially private server information, a denial of service on the nmbd NetBIOS name services daemon, and a denial of service crash involving overwriting memory on an authenticated connection to the smbd file server.
