+ Release Notes for Samba 3.5.1
+ March 8, 2010
+ =============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2010-0728.
+
+
+o CVE-2010-0728:
+ In Samba releases 3.5.0, 3.4.6 and 3.3.11, new code
+ was added to fix a problem with Linux asynchronous IO handling.
+ This code introduced a bad security flaw on Linux platforms if the
+ binaries were built on Linux platforms with libcap support.
+ The flaw caused all smbd processes to inherit CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE
+ capabilities, allowing all file system access to be allowed
+ even when permissions should have denied access.
+
+
+Changes since 3.5.0

+ Release Notes for Samba 3.5.0
+ March 1, 2010
+ ===============================
+
+
+This is the first stable release of Samba 3.5.
-This is the second release candidate of Samba 3.5. This is *not*
-intended for production environments and is designed for testing
-purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
-system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
Major enhancements in Samba 3.5.0 include:
o Add support for full Windows timestamp resolution
o The Using Samba HTML book has been removed.
o 'net', 'smbclient' and libsmbclient can use credentials cached by Winbind.
+o The default value of "wide links" has been changed to "no".
Protocol changes:
o Experimental implementation of SMB2
password. This feature is enabled by default and can be disabled per application
by setting the LIBSMBCLIENT_NO_CCACHE environment variable.
+The default value of "wide links" has been changed to "no" to avoid an insecure
+default configuration ("wide links = yes" and "unix extensions = yes"). For
+more details, please see http://www.samba.org/samba/news/symlink_attack.html.
+
+
