4 Hi all --
5
6 Can someone who uses Samba please take a look at bugs 41800 and 45965? 41800
7 is a local-root vulnerability with smbmount/smbfs (it has an updated ebuild),
8 and 45965 is a symlink vulnerability in smbprint (and it has the patch that
9 goes with 41800).
10
11 I'd like to make sure I got the smbprint patch right.
12
13 Also, what are your reactions to making smbmount non-setuid (thus preventing
14 normal users from mounting remote Samba filesystems)? Is there a better
15 workaround/fix for this (other than patching the kernel)? I'd rather not
16 tamper with existing functionality if I can help it.
17
18 Thanks.
