+ Release Notes for Samba 4.1.23
+ March 8, 2015
+ ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address the following CVEs:
+
+o CVE-2015-7560 (Incorrect ACL get/set allowed on symlink path)
+o CVE-2016-0771 (Out-of-bounds read in internal DNS server)
+
+=======
+Details
+=======
+
+o CVE-2015-7560:
+ All versions of Samba from 3.2.0 to 4.4.0rc3 inclusive are vulnerable to
+ a malicious client overwriting the ownership of ACLs using symlinks.
+
+ An authenticated malicious client can use SMB1 UNIX extensions to
+ create a symlink to a file or directory, and then use non-UNIX SMB1
+ calls to overwrite the contents of the ACL on the file or directory
+ linked to.
+
+o CVE-2016-0771:
+ All versions of Samba from 4.0.0 to 4.4.0rc3 inclusive, when deployed as
+ an AD DC and choose to run the internal DNS server, are vulnerable to an
+ out-of-bounds read issue during DNS TXT record handling caused by users
+ with permission to modify DNS records.
+
+ A malicious client can upload a specially constructed DNS TXT record,
+ resulting in a remote denial-of-service attack. As long as the affected
+ TXT record remains undisturbed in the Samba database, a targeted DNS
+ query may continue to trigger this exploit.
+
+ While unlikely, the out-of-bounds read may bypass safety checks and
+ allow leakage of memory from the server in the form of a DNS TXT reply.
+
+ By default only authenticated accounts can upload DNS records,
+ as "allow dns updates = secure only" is the default.
+ Any other value would allow anonymous clients to trigger this
+ bug, which is a much higher risk.

+===========================================================
+== Subject: Incorrect ACL get/set allowed on symlink path.
+==
+== CVE ID#: CVE-2015-7560
+==
+== Versions: Samba 3.2.0 to 4.4.0rc3
+==
+== Summary: Authenticated client could cause Samba to
+== overwrite ACLs with incorrect owner/group.
+==
+===========================================================
+
+===========
+Description
+===========
+
+All versions of Samba from 3.2.0 to 4.4.0rc3 inclusive are vulnerable to
+a malicious client overwriting the ownership of ACLs using symlinks.
+
+An authenticated malicious client can use SMB1 UNIX extensions to
+create a symlink to a file or directory, and then use non-UNIX SMB1
+calls to overwrite the contents of the ACL on the file or directory
+linked to.
+
+==================
+Patch Availability
+==================
+
+A patch addressing this defect has been posted to
+
+ https://www.samba.org/samba/security/
+
+Additionally, Samba 4.4.0rc4, 4.3.6, 4.2.9 and 4.1.23 have been issued as
+security releases to correct the defect. Patches against older Samba
+versions are available at https://www.samba.org/samba/patches/. Samba
+vendors and administrators running affected versions are advised to
+upgrade or apply the patch as soon as possible.
+
+==========
+Workaround
+==========
+
+Add the parameter:
+
+unix extensions = no
+
+to the [global] section of your smb.conf and restart smbd.
+
+Alternatively, prohibit the use of SMB1 by setting the parameter:
+
+server min protocol = SMB2
+
+to the [global] section of your smb.conf and restart smbd.
+
+=======
+Credits
+=======
+
+This problem was found by Jeremy Allison of Google, Inc. and the Samba
+Team, who also provided the fix.
