Vulnerability Insight:
Samba is an open-source implementation of
the Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol,
which allows PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and other
information.

A flaw was found in the way Samba handled ACLs on symbolic links.
An authenticated user could use this flaw to gain access to an arbitrary
file or directory by overwriting its ACL. (CVE-2015-7560)

Upstream acknowledges Jeremy Allison (Google) and the Samba team as the
original reporters.

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this
update, the smb service will be restarted automatically.

Affected Software/OS:
samba4 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Desktop (v. 6),
