Bug#436153: incorrect use of parameter "create mask"
> Until someone convinces the maitnainers that a security issue is > involved, I would say "no chance" And, really, I would discourage reporting such "bugs" that are only present in the samba version in etch while they're fixed in unstable versions. That will force us to do what Steve did for #436153: mark the bug as fixed in whatever appropriate version which is in unstable and "found" in the etch version. Then nothing more will happen and, in short, the BTS for samba will become a little bit more cluttered, with no benefit at all. We have enough real bugs in the samba packages, we don't really need more especially when these are bugs that will not benefit our upstream because they already fixed them. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#436153: incorrect use of parameter "create mask"
Package: samba Version: 3.0.24 In this version the parameter "create mask" is incorrectly used for restricting rights on already created files, so chmod on an cifs mounded share is blocked when trying to extend file permissions. See thread: http://lists.samba.org/archive/linux-cifs-client/2007-January/001690.html In current samba-releases this bug is corrected (see end of thread: http://lists.samba.org/archive/linux-cifs-client/2007-January/001697.html ) Is there a chance of applying the patch to the mentioned debian version?
