[GLSA-200409-14] Samba: Remote printing vulnerability |
||
Samba: Remote printing vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200409-14 (Samba: Remote printing vulnerability) Due to a bug in the printer_notify_info() function, authorized users could potentially crash the Samba server 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. Impact A remote authorized user could potentially crash a Samba server after issuing these out of sequence requests. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
