227 Release Notes for Samba 4.0.2
228 January 30, 2013
229 =============================
232 This is a security release in order to address
233 CVE-2013-0213 (Clickjacking issue in SWAT) and
234 CVE-2013-0214 (Potential XSRF in SWAT).
236 o CVE-2013-0213:
237 All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to clickjacking in the
238 Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). When the SWAT pages are integrated into
239 a malicious web page via a frame or iframe and then overlaid by other content,
240 an attacker could trick an administrator to potentially change Samba settings.
242 In order to be vulnerable, SWAT must have been installed and enabled
243 either as a standalone server launched from inetd or xinetd, or as a
244 CGI plugin to Apache. If SWAT has not been installed or enabled (which
245 is the default install state for Samba) this advisory can be ignored.
247 o CVE-2013-0214:
248 All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to a cross-site
249 request forgery in the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). By guessing a
250 user's password and then tricking a user who is authenticated with SWAT into
251 clicking a manipulated URL on a different web page, it is possible to manipulate
252 SWAT.
254 In order to be vulnerable, the attacker needs to know the victim's password.
255 Additionally SWAT must have been installed and enabled either as a standalone
256 server launched from inetd or xinetd, or as a CGI plugin to Apache. If SWAT has
257 not been installed or enabled (which is the default install state for Samba)
258 this advisory can be ignored.

293 Release Notes for Samba 4.0.1
294 January 15, 2013
295 =============================
298 This is a security release in order to address CVE-2013-0172.
300 o CVE-2013-0172:
301 Samba 4.0.0 as an AD DC may provide authenticated users with write access
302 to LDAP directory objects.
304 In AD, Access Control Entries can be assigned based on the objectClass
305 of the object. If a user or a group the user is a member of has any
306 access based on the objectClass, then that user has write access to that
307 object.
309 Additionally, if a user has write access to any attribute on the object,
310 they may have access to write to all attributes.
312 An important mitigation is that anonymous access is totally disabled by
313 default. The second important mitigation is that normal users are
314 typically only given the problematic per-objectClass right via the
315 "pre-windows 2000 compatible access" group, and Samba 4.0.0 incorrectly
316 does not make "authenticated users" part of this group.
318 Changes since 4.0.0:
319 ====================
321 o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
322 * Bug 9554 - CVE-2013-0172 - Samba 4.0 as an AD DC may provide authenticated
323 users with write access to LDAP directory objects.

349 Release Notes for Samba 4.0.0
350 December 11, 2012
351 =============================
354 This is is the first stable release of Samba 4.0.
356 This release contains the best of all of Samba's
357 technology parts, both a file server (that you can reasonably expect
358 to upgrade existing Samba 3.x releases to) and the AD domain
359 controller work previously known as 'Samba4'.
361 Major enhancements in Samba 4.0.0 include:
363 Active Directory services
364 =========================
366 Samba 4.0 supports the server-side of the Active Directory logon
367 environment used by Windows 2000 and later, so we can do full domain
368 join and domain logon operations with these clients.
370 Our Domain Controller (DC) implementation includes our own built-in
371 LDAP server and Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) as well as the
372 Samba3-like logon services provided over CIFS. We correctly generate
373 the infamous Kerberos PAC, and include it with the Kerberos tickets we
374 issue.
376 When running an AD DC, you only need to run 'samba' (not smbd/nmbd/winbindd),
377 as the required services are co-coordinated by this master binary.
378 The tool to administer the Active Directory services is called 'samba-tool'.
380 A short guide to setting up Samba 4 as an AD DC can be found on the wiki:
382 http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO
385 File Services
386 =============
388 Samba 4.0.0 ships with two distinct file servers. We now use the
389 file server from the Samba 3.x series 'smbd' for all file serving by
390 default.
392 Samba 4.0 also ships with the 'NTVFS' file server. This file server
393 is what was used prior to the beta2 release of Samba 4.0, and is
394 tuned to match the requirements of an AD domain controller. We
395 continue to support this, not only to provide continuity to
396 installations that have deployed it as part of an AD DC, but also as a
397 running example of the NT-FSA architecture we expect to move smbd to in
398 the longer term.
400 For pure file server work, the binaries users would expect from that
401 series (smbd, nmbd, winbindd, smbpasswd) continue to be available.
404 Domain Member Support
405 =====================
407 Domain member support in the 'samba' binary is in its infancy, and
408 is not comparable to the support found in 'winbindd'. As such, on
409 Samba domain member servers, the binaries 'smbd', 'nmbd' and 'winbindd'
410 are to be used, as known from Samba 3 domain member server setups.
411 The only exceptions from this rule are the cases which explicitly
412 require the 'samba' binary, namely running the ntvfs file server,
413 the CIFS proxy or OpenChange on a domain member.
416 DNS
417 ===
419 As DNS is an integral part of Active Directory, we also provide two DNS
420 solutions, a simple internal DNS server for 'out of the box' configurations
421 and a more elaborate BIND plugin using the BIND DLZ mechanism in versions
422 9.8 and 9.9. During the provision, you can select which backend to use.
423 With the internal backend, your DNS server is good to go.
424 If you chose the BIND_DLZ backend, a configuration file will be generated
425 for bind to make it use this plugin, as well as a file explaining how to
426 set up bind.
429 NTP
430 ===
432 To provide accurate timestamps to Windows clients, we integrate with
433 the NTP project to provide secured NTP replies. To use you need to
434 start ntpd and configure it with the 'restrict ... ms-sntp' and
435 ntpsigndsocket options.
438 Python Scripting Interface
439 ==========================
441 A new scripting interface has been added to Samba 4, allowing
442 Python programs to interface to Samba's internals, and many tools and
443 internal workings of the DC code is now implemented in python.
446 Known Issues
447 ============
449 - Replication of DNS data from one AD server to another may not work.
450 The DNS data used by the internal DNS server and bind9_dlz is stored
451 in an application partition in our directory. The replication of
452 this partition is not yet reliable.
454 - Replication may fail on FreeBSD due to getaddrinfo() rejecting names
455 containing _. A workaround will be in a future release.
457 - samba_upgradeprovision should not be run when upgrading to this release
458 from a recent release. No important database format changes have
459 been made since alpha16.
461 - Installation on systems without a system iconv (and developer
462 headers at compile time) is known to cause errors when dealing with
463 non-ASCII characters.
465 - There is no NetBIOS browsing support (network neighbourhood)
466 available for the AD domain controller. (Support in nmbd and smbd
467 for classic domains and member/standalone servers is unchanged).
469 - Clock Synchronisation is critical. Many 'wrong password' errors are
470 actually due to Kerberos objecting to a clock skew between client
471 and server. (The NTP work in the previous alphas are partly to assist
472 with this problem).
474 - The DRS replication code may fail. Please contact the team if you
475 experience issues with DRS replication, as we have fixed many issues
476 here in response to feedback from our production users.
478 - Linux inotify will now only be supported on systems where glibc also supports
479 it (for details, please refer to bug #8850).
482 Upgrading
483 =========
485 Users upgrading from Samba 3.x domain controllers and wanting to use
486 Samba 4.0 as an AD DC should use the 'samba-tool domain
487 classicupgrade' command. See the wiki for more details:
488 https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/samba3upgrade/HOWTO.
490 Users upgrading from Samba 4.0 alpha and beta releases since alpha15
491 should run 'samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix' before re-starting
492 Samba. Users upgrading from earlier alpha releases should contact the
493 team for advice.
495 Users upgrading an AD DC from any previous release should run
496 'samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset' to re-sync ACLs on the sysvol share
497 with those matching the GPOs in LDAP and the defaults from an initial
498 provision. This will set an underlying POSIX ACL if required (eg not
499 using the NTVFS file server).
501 If you used the BIND9_FLATFILE or BIND9_DLZ features,
502 you'll have to add '-dns' to the 'server services' option,
503 as the internal dns server (SAMBA_INTERNAL) is the default now.
506 Supported features

629 CHANGES SINCE 4.0.0rc5
630 ======================
632 In this release candidate, we have a significant number of improvements
633 to our Access Control List (ACL) code, particularly for the Active
634 Directory Domain Controller, but also in our general purpose file
635 server.
637 These changes are important, as they enable Group Policy Objects to work
638 correctly, allow administrators to impose restrictions on some users
639 reading certain parts of the directory and correctly propagating
640 inherited ACLs down the LDAP directory tree.
642 Users of the Active Directory Domain Controller upgrading from any
643 previous release should run 'samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset' to re-sync
644 ACLs on the sysvol share with those matching the GPOs in LDAP and the
645 defaults from an initial provision. This will set an underlying POSIX
