CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2009:1528
Samba is a suite of programs used by machines to share files, printers, and
other information.
A denial of service flaw was found in the Samba smbd daemon. An
authenticated, remote user could send a specially-crafted response that
would cause an smbd child process to enter an infinite loop. An
authenticated, remote user could use this flaw to exhaust system resources
by opening multiple CIFS sessions. (CVE-2009-2906)
This update also fixes the following bug:
Users of Samba should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this update,
the smb service will be restarted automatically.
