Category:	Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2015-020-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'samba' package(s) announced via the SSA:2015-020-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'samba' package(s) announced via the SSA:2015-020-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New samba packages are available for Slackware 14.1 and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/samba-4.1.16-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update is a security release in order to address CVE-2014-8143 (Elevation of privilege to Active Directory Domain Controller). Samba's AD DC allows the administrator to delegate creation of user or computer accounts to specific users or groups. However, all released versions of Samba's AD DC did not implement the additional required check on the UF_SERVER_TRUST_ACCOUNT bit in the userAccountControl attributes. Most Samba deployments are not of the AD Domain Controller, but are of the classic domain controller, the file server or print server. Only the Active Directory Domain Controller is affected by this issue. Additionally, most sites running the AD Domain Controller do not configure delegation for the creation of user or computer accounts, and so are not vulnerable to this issue, as no writes are permitted to the userAccountControl attribute, no matter what the value. For more information, see: [link moved to references] (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'samba' package(s) on Slackware 14.1, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 8.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
