Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1183-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'samba' package(s) announced via the DLA-1183-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'samba' package(s) announced via the DLA-1183-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Volker Lendecke of SerNet and the Samba team discovered that Samba, a SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix, is prone to a heap memory information leak, where server allocated heap memory may be returned to the client without being cleared.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u15.

We recommend that you upgrade your samba packages.
