| <p> |
| Samba contains a logical error in the smbd daemon when translating |
| local SID to user names (CVE-2007-2444). Furthermore, Samba contains |
| several bugs when parsing NDR encoded RPC parameters (CVE-2007-2446). |
| Lastly, Samba fails to properly sanitize remote procedure input |
| provided via Microsoft Remote Procedure Calls (CVE-2007-2447). |

| <impact type="high"> |
| <p> |
| A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to gain root |
| privileges via various vectors. |
| </p> |
| </impact> |
| <workaround> |
| <p> |
| There is no known workaround at this time. |
| </p> |
| </workaround> |
| <resolution> |
| <p> |
| All Samba users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| </p> |
| <code> |
| # emerge --sync |
| # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-fs/samba-3.0.24-r2"</code> |
