Descriptions

There is an issue in all samba 4.11.x versions before 4.11.5, all samba 4.10.x versions before 4.10.12 and all samba 4.9.x versions before 4.9.18, where the removal of the right to create or modify a subtree would not automatically be taken away on all domain controllers.

Se presenta un problema en todas las versiones 4.11.x anteriores a 4.11.5 de samba, todas las versiones 4.10.x anteriores a 4.10.12 de samba y todas las versiones 4.9.x anteriores a 4.9.18 de samba, donde la eliminación del derecho a crear o modificar un sub-árbol no sería quitado automáticamente en todos los controladores del dominio.

It was discovered that Samba did not automatically replicate ACLs set to inherit down a subtree on AD Directory, contrary to expectations. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 19.04 and Ubuntu 19.10. Robert Święcki discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain character conversions when the log level is set to 3 or above. In certain environments, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
