Advisory number: 	CSSA-2003-017.0
Issue date: 		2003 May 02

1. Problem Description

	This update addresses the following Samba issues:

	A bug in the length checking for encrypted password change
	requests from clients could be exploited using a buffer
	overrun attack on the smbd stack.

	A vulnerability that could lead to an anonymous user gaining
	root access on a Samba serving system.

	A chown race condition that could allow overwriting of
	critical system files if exploited.

	A buffer overflow in the call_trans2open function in trans2.c
	allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

	Multiple buffer overflows that may allow remote attackers to
	execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	System				Package
	----------------------------------------------------------------------

	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server		prior to libsmbclient-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to samba-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to samba-doc-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to smbfs-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to swat-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm

	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation	prior to libsmbclient-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to samba-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to samba-doc-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to smbfs-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm
					prior to swat-2.2.2-7.i386.rpm


3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
	customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called
	cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these
	packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand.
