Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : : : Updated samba packages fix security vulnerabilities

Notes

Topic
Updated Samba packages fixing various security vulnerabilities are now available for Red Hat Linux on IBM iSeries and pSeries systems.
Details
Samba is a suite of utilities providing file and printer sharing services to SMB/CIFS clients. A buffer overflow in the SMB/CIFS packet fragment re-assembly code for the SMB daemon (smbd) in unpatched versions of Samba before 2.2.8 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0085 to this issue. The code for writing reg files in Samba before 2.2.8 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a race condition involving chown. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0086 to this issue. Multiple buffer overflows in Samba before 2.2.8a may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, as discovered by the Samba team during a code audit. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0196 to this issue. A buffer overflow in the call_trans2open function allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0201 to this issue. All users of Samba are advised to update to the packages listed in this erratum, which contain backported patches correcting these vulnerabilities.

Only those\nRPMs which are currently installed will be updated.  Those RPMs which are\nnot installed but included in the list will not be updated.  Note that you\ncan also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the\ndesired RPMs.\n\nPlease note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network.  Many\npeople find this an easier way to apply updates.  To use Red Hat Network,\nlaunch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:\n\nup2date\n\nThis will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate\nRPMs being upgraded on your system.",
