This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
Samba is a suite of programs used by machines to share files, printers, and other information.
A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Samba creates NetBIOS replies. If a Samba server is configured to run as a WINS server, a remote unauthenticated user could cause the Samba server to crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2007-5398)
Red Hat would like to thank Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research for responsibly disclosing this issue.
Users of Samba should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
