Description

A denial of service vulnerability was discovered in Samba's LDAP server before versions 4.7.12, 4.8.7, and 4.9.3. A CNAME loop could lead to infinite recursion in the server. An unprivileged local attacker could create such an entry, leading to denial of service.

Affected configurations

• samba samba (>= 4.0.0 < 4.7.12) • samba samba (>= 4.8.0 < 4.8.7) • samba samba (>= 4.8.8 < 4.9.3) • canonical ubuntu linux 12.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 14.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 16.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 18.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 18.10 • debian debian linux 8.0 • debian debian linux 9.0
