   An update that solves one vulnerability and has four fixes
   is now available.

Description:


   A remote code execution flaw in Samba has been fixed:

   * CVE-2012-1182: PIDL based autogenerated code uses
   client supplied size values which allows attackers to write
   beyond the allocated array size

   Also the following bugs have been fixed:

   * Samba printer name marshalling problems (bnc#722663)
   * mount.cifs: properly update mtab during remount
   (bnc#747906)
   * s3: compile IDL files in autogen, some configure
   tests need this.
   * Fix incorrect types in the full audit VFS module. Add
   null terminators to audit log enums (bnc#742885)
   * Do not map POSIX execute permission to Windows
   FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES; (bso#8631); (bnc#732572).

   Security Issue reference:

   * CVE-2012-1182
