Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.61090
Category:Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:Fedora Core 7 FEDORA-2008-4797 (samba)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to samba
announced via advisory FEDORA-2008-4797.

Update Information:

Fix CVE-2008-1105 A heap-based buffer overflow flaw has been found in the way
Samba clients handle over-sized packets. If a client connected to a malicious
Samba server, it was possible to execute arbitrary code as the Samba client
user. The Samba server can also act as a client to perform some operations
(print notify, domain member vs domain controler ...). This could result in the
server executing the vulnerable client code, resulting in arbitrary code
execution with the permissions of the Samba server.
