Description

Previous versions of the samba package are vulnerable to an Arbitrary
Code Execution attack in which a remote attacker may cause a heap-based
buffer overflow via a maliciously crafted SMB response.
In addition, because the gamin libraries are now required for some
recent versions of samba, gamin has been added to rPath Appliance
Platform Linux Service 1.
