Title:Samba Unspecified Vulnerability (CVE-2021-3670)
Summary:Samba is prone to an unspecified vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Samba is prone to an unspecified vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
LDAP search filters can be very complex, search filters are not
limited to indexed attributes and they can also include complex extended match rules like
LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN.

The LDAP Policy setting 'lDAPAdminLimits: MaxQueryDuration=120' (by default) should have provided
a generous upper bound, however the policy was previously not considered in setting the timeout.

Additionally, no interruption points were set in the filter handling to check if the operation was
over-time.

Affected Software/OS:
Samba version 4.1.0 through 4.14.12 and 4.15.x through
4.15.5.

Solution:
Update to version 4.14.13, 4.15.6 or later.

CVSS Score:
6.8
