  <description>
    <p>
    Samba contains a logical error in the smbd daemon when translating
    local SID to user names (CVE-2007-2444). Furthermore, Samba contains
    several bugs when parsing NDR encoded RPC parameters (CVE-2007-2446).
    Lastly, Samba fails to properly sanitize remote procedure input
    provided via Microsoft Remote Procedure Calls (CVE-2007-2447).
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="high">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to gain root
    privileges via various vectors.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Samba users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-fs/samba-3.0.24-r2&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
