En Samba, la función GnuTLS gnutls_rnd() puede fallar y dar valores aleatorios predecibles

A flaw was found in Samba. When the gnutls_rnd function is called, its return value is not verified, allowing it to give predictable random values when the call to the gnutls_rnd function fails.

Samba is an open-source implementation of the Server Message Block protocol and the related Common Internet File System protocol, which allow PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and various information.
