+ <title>Samba: Remote printing non-vulnerability</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Samba has a bug with out of sequence print change notification requests,
+ but it cannot be used to perform a remote denial of service attack.
+ </synopsis>
+ <product type="ebuild">samba</product>
+ <announced>September 09, 2004</announced>
+ <revised>May 22, 2006: 03</revised>
+ <bug>62476</bug>
+ <access>remote</access>
+ <affected>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Samba is a freely available SMB/CIFS implementation which allows
+ seamless interoperability of file and print services to other SMB/CIFS
+ clients.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Due to a bug in the printer_notify_info() function, authorized users
+ could potentially crash their smbd process by sending improperly
+ handled print change notification requests in an invalid order. Windows
+ XP SP2 clients can trigger this behavior by sending a
+ FindNextPrintChangeNotify() request before previously sending a
+ FindFirstPrintChangeNotify() request.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ We incorrectly thought that this bug could be exploited to deny service
+ to all Samba users. It is not the case, this bug has no security impact
+ whatsoever. Many thanks to Jerry Carter from the Samba team for
+ correcting our mistake.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no need for a workaround.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ Samba users can keep their current versions.
+ </p>
+ </resolution>
