2 Release Notes for Samba 3.4.12
4 ==============================
7 This is a security release in order to address CVE-2011-0719.
11 All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to
12 a denial of service caused by memory corruption. Range
13 checks on file descriptors being used in the FD_SET macro
14 were not present allowing stack corruption. This can cause
15 the Samba code to crash or to loop attempting to select
16 on a bad file descriptor set.
23 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
24 * BUG 7949: Fix DoS in Winbind and smbd with many file descriptors open.

387 In Samba releases 3.5.0, 3.4.6 and 3.3.11, new code
388 was added to fix a problem with Linux asynchronous IO handling.
389 This code introduced a bad security flaw on Linux platforms if the
390 binaries were built on Linux platforms with libcap support.
391 The flaw caused all smbd processes to inherit CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE
392 capabilities, allowing all file system access to be allowed
393 even when permissions should have denied access.

851 Release Notes for Samba 3.4.2
853 =============================
856 This is a security release in order to address CVE-2009-2813, CVE-2009-2948
860 In all versions of Samba later than 3.0.11, connecting to the home
861 share of a user will use the root of the filesystem
862 as the home directory if this user is misconfigured to have
863 an empty home directory in /etc/passwd.
866 If mount.cifs is installed as a setuid program, a user can pass it a
867 credential or password path to which he or she does not have access and
868 then use the --verbose option to view the first line of that file.
869 All known Samba versions are affected.
872 Specially crafted SMB requests on authenticated SMB connections can
873 send smbd into a 100% CPU loop, causing a DoS on the Samba server.

1055 Release Notes for Samba 3.4.0
1057 =============================
1060 This is the first stable release of Samba 3.4.
1063 Major enhancements in Samba 3.4.0 include:
1064 ------------------------------------------
1066 Configuration changes:
1067 o The default passdb backend has been changed to 'tdbsam'!
1070 o Samba4 and Samba3 sources are included in the tarball
1072 Authentication Changes:
1073 o Changed the way smbd handles untrusted domain names given during user
1077 o Various fixes including printer change notificiation for Samba spoolss
1081 o The remaining hand-marshalled DCE/RPC services (ntsvcs, svcctl, eventlog
1082 and spoolss) were replaced by autogenerated code based on PIDL.
1083 o Samba3 and Samba4 do now share a common tevent library.
1084 o The code has been cleaned up and the major basic interfaces are shared with
1086 o An asynchronous API has been added.
1089 Configuration changes
1090 =====================
1093 The default passdb backend has been changed to 'tdbsam'! That breaks existing
1094 setups using the 'smbpasswd' backend without explicit declaration! Please use
1095 'passdb backend = smbpasswd' if you would like to stick to the 'smbpasswd'
1096 backend or convert your smbpasswd entries using e.g. 'pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e
1099 The 'tdbsam' backend is much more flexible concerning per user settings
1100 like 'profile path' or 'home directory' and there are some commands which do not
1101 work with the 'smbpasswd' backend at all.
1107 On the way towards a standalone Samba AD domain controller, Samba3 and Samba4
1108 branches can be built as "merged" build. That's why Samba3 and Samba4 sources
1109 are included in the tarball. The merged build is possible in Samba 3.4.0, but
1110 disabled by default. To learn more about the merged build,
1111 please see http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Franky.
1113 According to this one, there is no "source" directory included in the tarball at
1114 all. Samba3 sources are located in "source3", Samba4 sources are located in
1115 "source4". The libraries have been moved to the toplevel directory.
1117 To build plain Samba3, please change to "source3" and start the build as usual.
1118 To build Samba4 as well, please use the "--enable-merged-build" configure
1122 Authentication Changes
1123 ======================
1125 Previously, when Samba was a domain member and a client was connecting using an
1126 untrusted domain name, such as BOGUS\user smbd would remap the untrusted
1127 domain to the primary domain smbd was a member of and attempt authentication
1128 using that DOMAIN\user name. This differed from how a Windows member server
1129 would behave. Now, smbd will replace the BOGUS name with it's SAM name. In
1130 the case where smbd is acting as a PDC this will be DOMAIN\user. In the case
1131 where smbd is acting as a domain member server this will be WORKSTATION\user.
1132 Thus, smbd will never assume that an incoming user name which is not qualified
1133 with the same primary domain, is part of smbd's primary domain.
1135 While this behavior matches Windows, it may break some workflows which depended
1136 on smbd to always pass through bogus names to the DC for verification. A new
1137 parameter "map untrusted to domain" can be enabled to revert to the legacy
1144 The spoolss subsystem was replaced by autogenerated code based on PIDL. That fixes
1145 several printing issues including printer change notificiation on Samba print
1146 servers and will stabilize the printing functionality generally.
1147 The support for spoolss printing with Windows Vista has been improved.
1153 The remaining hand-marshalled DCE/RPC services (ntsvcs, svcctl, eventlog and
1154 spoolss) were replaced by autogenerated code based on PIDL.
1155 So Günther Deschner finally corrected one of the biggest mistakes in the
1156 development of Samba: Hand-marshalled RPC stubs.
1160 Samba3 and Samba4 do now share a common tevent library for fd and timer events.
1162 The code has been cleaned up and Samba3 and Samba4 do share the major basic
1163 interfaces now. That is why the libraries were moved to the toplevel directory.
1164 That is one of the first steps to share code and minimize the gap between
1167 An asynchronous API has been added.
