Descriptions

Stack-based buffer overflow in the (1) sid_parse and (2) dom_sid_parse functions in Samba before 3.5.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Windows Security ID (SID) on a file share.

Un desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en las funciones (1) sid_parse y (2) dom_sid_parse en Samba anterior a v3.5.5 permite a los atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) y posiblemente ejecutar código a su elección a través de Windows Security ID (SID) manipulados en un fichero compartido.

Andrew Bartlett discovered that Samba did not correctly validate the length when parsing SIDs. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to the server and cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the Samba service (smbd). The default compiler options for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and newer should reduce the vulnerability to a denial of service.
