363 Release Notes for Samba 4.13.8
365 ==============================
368 This is a security release in order to address the following defect:
370 o CVE-2021-20254: Negative idmap cache entries can cause incorrect group entries
371 in the Samba file server process token.
379 The Samba smbd file server must map Windows group identities (SIDs) into unix
380 group ids (gids). The code that performs this had a flaw that could allow it
381 to read data beyond the end of the array in the case where a negative cache
382 entry had been added to the mapping cache. This could cause the calling code
383 to return those values into the process token that stores the group
384 membership for a user.
386 Most commonly this flaw caused the calling code to crash, but an alert user
387 (Peter Eriksson, IT Department, Linköping University) found this flaw by
388 noticing an unprivileged user was able to delete a file within a network
389 share that they should have been disallowed access to.
391 Analysis of the code paths has not allowed us to discover a way for a
392 remote user to be able to trigger this flaw reproducibly or on demand,
393 but this CVE has been issued out of an abundance of caution.
399 o Volker Lendecke <vl@samba.org>
400 * BUG 14571: CVE-2021-20254: Fix buffer overrun in sids_to_unixids().

437 o CVE-2020-27840: Heap corruption via crafted DN strings.
438 o CVE-2021-20277: Out of bounds read in AD DC LDAP server.
446 An anonymous attacker can crash the Samba AD DC LDAP server by sending easily
447 crafted DNs as part of a bind request. More serious heap corruption is likely
451 User-controlled LDAP filter strings against the AD DC LDAP server may crash

763 Release Notes for Samba 4.13.2
765 ==============================
768 This is the latest stable release of the Samba 4.13 release series.
770 Major enhancements include:
771 o BUG 14537: ctdb-common: Avoid aliasing errors during code optimization.
772 o BUG 14486: vfs_glusterfs: Avoid data corruption with the write-behind
780 The GlusterFS write-behind performance translator, when used with Samba, could
781 be a source of data corruption. The translator, while processing a write call,
782 immediately returns success but continues writing the data to the server in the
783 background. This can cause data corruption when two clients relying on Samba to
784 provide data consistency are operating on the same file.
786 The write-behind translator is enabled by default on GlusterFS.
787 The vfs_glusterfs plugin will check for the presence of the translator and
788 refuse to connect if detected. Please disable the write-behind translator for
789 the GlusterFS volume to allow the plugin to connect to the volume.
795 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
796 * BUG 14486: s3: modules: vfs_glusterfs: Fix leak of char
797 **lines onto mem_ctx on return.

871 ==============================
872 Release Notes for Samba 4.13.1
874 ==============================
877 This is a security release in order to address the following defects:
879 o CVE-2020-14318: Missing handle permissions check in SMB1/2/3 ChangeNotify.
880 o CVE-2020-14323: Unprivileged user can crash winbind.
881 o CVE-2020-14383: An authenticated user can crash the DCE/RPC DNS with easily
890 The SMB1/2/3 protocols have a concept of "ChangeNotify", where a client can
891 request file name notification on a directory handle when a condition such as
892 "new file creation" or "file size change" or "file timestamp update" occurs.
894 A missing permissions check on a directory handle requesting ChangeNotify
895 meant that a client with a directory handle open only for
896 FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES (minimal access rights) could be used to obtain change
897 notify replies from the server. These replies contain information that should
898 not be available to directory handles open for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTE only.
901 winbind in version 3.6 and later implements a request to translate multiple
902 Windows SIDs into names in one request. This was done for performance
903 reasons: The Microsoft RPC call domain controllers offer to do this
904 translation, so it was an obvious extension to also offer this batch
905 operation on the winbind unix domain stream socket that is available to local
906 processes on the Samba server.
908 Due to improper input validation a hand-crafted packet can make winbind
909 perform a NULL pointer dereference and thus crash.
912 Some DNS records (such as MX and NS records) usually contain data in the
913 additional section. Samba's dnsserver RPC pipe (which is an administrative
914 interface not used in the DNS server itself) made an error in handling the
915 case where there are no records present: instead of noticing the lack of
916 records, it dereferenced uninitialised memory, causing the RPC server to
917 crash. This RPC server, which also serves protocols other than dnsserver,
918 will be restarted after a short delay, but it is easy for an authenticated
919 non-admin attacker to crash it again as soon as it returns. The Samba DNS
920 server itself will continue to operate, but many RPC services will not.
922 For more details, please refer to the security advisories.
928 o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
929 * BUG 14434: CVE-2020-14318: s3: smbd: Ensure change notifies can't get set
930 unless the directory handle is open for SEC_DIR_LIST.
932 o Douglas Bagnall <douglas.bagnall@catalyst.net.nz>

965 Release Notes for Samba 4.13.0
967 ==============================
970 This is the first stable release of the Samba 4.13 release series.
971 Please read the release notes carefully before upgrading.
977 Please avoid to set "server schannel = no" and "server schannel= auto" on all
978 Samba domain controllers due to the wellknown ZeroLogon issue.
980 For details please see
981 https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2020-1472.html.
987 Python 3.6 or later required
988 ----------------------------
990 Samba's minimum runtime requirement for python was raised to Python
991 3.5 with samba 4.12. Samba 4.13 raises this minimum version to Python
992 3.6 both to access new features and because this is the oldest version
993 we test with in our CI infrastructure.
995 This is also the last release where it will be possible to build Samba
996 (just the file server) with Python versions 2.6 and 2.7.
998 As Python 2.7 has been End Of Life upstream since April 2020, Samba
999 is dropping ALL Python 2.x support in the NEXT release.
1001 Samba 4.14 to be released in March 2021 will require Python 3.6 or
1004 wide links functionality
1005 ------------------------
1007 For this release, the code implementing the insecure "wide links = yes"
1008 functionality has been moved out of the core smbd code and into a separate
1009 VFS module, vfs_widelinks. Currently this vfs module is implicitly loaded
1010 by smbd as the last but one module before vfs_default if "wide links = yes"
1011 is enabled on the share (note, the existing restrictions on enabling wide
1012 links around the SMB1 "unix extensions" and the "allow insecure wide links"
1013 parameters are still in force). The implicit loading was done to allow
1014 existing users of "wide links = yes" to keep this functionality without
1015 having to make a change to existing working smb.conf files.
1017 Please note that the Samba developers recommend changing any Samba
1018 installations that currently use "wide links = yes" to use bind mounts
1019 as soon as possible, as "wide links = yes" is an inherently insecure
1020 configuration which we would like to remove from Samba. Moving the
1021 feature into a VFS module allows this to be done in a cleaner way
1024 A future release to be determined will remove this implicit linkage,
1025 causing administrators who need this functionality to have to explicitly
1026 add the vfs_widelinks module into the "vfs objects =" parameter lists.
1027 The release notes will be updated to note this change when it occurs.
1029 NT4-like 'classic' Samba domain controllers
1030 -------------------------------------------
1032 Samba 4.13 deprecates Samba's original domain controller mode.
1034 Sites using Samba as a Domain Controller should upgrade from the
1035 NT4-like 'classic' Domain Controller to a Samba Active Directory DC
1036 to ensure full operation with modern windows clients.
1038 SMBv1 only protocol options deprecated
1039 --------------------------------------
1041 A number of smb.conf parameters for less-secure authentication methods
1042 which are only possible over SMBv1 are deprecated in this release.
1048 The deprecated "ldap ssl ads" smb.conf option has been removed.
1054 Parameter Name Description Default
1055 -------------- ----------- -------
1056 ldap ssl ads Removed
1057 smb2 disable lock sequence checking Added No
1058 smb2 disable oplock break retry Added No
1059 domain logons Deprecated no
