Summary
samba vulnerabilities
Details
Christof Schmitt discovered that Samba incorrectly initialized a certain response field when vfs shadow copy was enabled. A remote authenticated attacker could use this issue to possibly obtain sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0178)
It was discovered that the Samba internal DNS server incorrectly handled QR fields when processing incoming DNS messages. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Samba to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0239)
Daniel Berteaud discovered that the Samba NetBIOS name service daemon incorrectly handled certain malformed packets. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause Samba to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 13.10, and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-0244)
Simon Arlott discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain unicode path names. A remote authenticated attacker could use this issue to cause Samba to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-3493)
