Bindview Advisory - SMBD remote file creation vulnerability. Insufficient parameter validation and unsafe default configuration on popular Linux platforms make systems running samba SMB file sharing daemon vulnerable to remote attacks. Tested on SMBD 2.0.7 and 2.0.8. Samba daemon allows remote attackers to create SMB session log files (*.log) with highly attacker-dependent contents outside outside logs directory. This vulnerability itself can be used to perform DoS attacks, or, if combined with unprivileged local access, can be used to gain superuser privileges.
