<title>Samba: Remote printing non-vulnerability</title>

<p>
|
|
Samba is a freely available SMB/CIFS implementation which allows
|
|
seamless interoperability of file and print services to other SMB/CIFS
|
|
clients.

<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.

<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.

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no need for a workaround.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Samba users can keep their current versions.
