Slackware: 2010-169-01: samba Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 13.0 ChangeLog: patches/packages/samba-3.2.15-i486-2_slack13.0.txz: Rebuilt. Patched a buffer overflow in smbd that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted field in a packet. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-2063 (* Security fix *)
Where Find New Packages
HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?
Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site
for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading
directly from ftp.slackware.com.
Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(https://osuosl.org/) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)
Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://www.slackware.com/ for
additional mirror sites near you.
