[Announce] Samba 4.7.6, 4.6.14 and 4.5.16 Security Releases Available for Download
Release Announcements
---------------------
These are security release in order to address the following defects:
o CVE-2018-1050 (Denial of Service Attack on external print server.)
o CVE-2018-1057 (Authenticated users can change other users' password.)
======Details
======
o CVE-2018-1050:
All versions of Samba from 4.0.0 onwards are vulnerable to a denial of
service attack when the RPC spoolss service is configured to be run as
an external daemon. Missing input sanitization checks on some of the
input parameters to spoolss RPC calls could cause the print spooler
service to crash.
There is no known vulnerability associated with this error, merely a
denial of service. If the RPC spoolss service is left by default as an
internal service, all a client can do is crash its own authenticated
connection.
o CVE-2018-1057:
On a Samba 4 AD DC the LDAP server in all versions of Samba from
4.0.0 onwards incorrectly validates permissions to modify passwords
over LDAP allowing authenticated users to change any other users'
passwords, including administrative users.
Possible workarounds are described at a dedicated page in the Samba wiki:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/CVE-2018-1057

o Jeremy Allison <jra at samba.org>

It really will depend on the network. Samba's winbindd avoids talking to ldap if you don't enumerate users, so it may work if you 'just' have a member file server and nothing else. It isn't hard to turn back on if things break, and hopefully you can upgrade Samba fairly swiftly.
