Category:Slackware Local Security Checks
Title:Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2016-189-01)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'samba' package(s) announced via the SSA:2016-189-01 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'samba' package(s) announced via the SSA:2016-189-01 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
New samba packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/samba-4.4.5-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This release fixes a security issue:
Client side SMB2/3 required signing can be downgraded.
It's possible for an attacker to downgrade the required signing for an
SMB2/3 client connection, by injecting the SMB2_SESSION_FLAG_IS_GUEST or
SMB2_SESSION_FLAG_IS_NULL flags. This means that the attacker can
impersonate a server being connected to by Samba, and return malicious
results.

Affected Software/OS:
'samba' package(s) on Slackware 14.0, Slackware 14.1, Slackware 14.2, Slackware current.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
