According to its version number, the remote Samba server is affected by several flaws :
A denial of service issue occuring if an authenticated attacker sends a large number of CIFS session requests which will cause an infinite loop to occur in the smbd daemon, thus utilizing CPU resources and denying access to legitimate users ;
A remote format string vulnerability that could be exploited by an attacker with write access to a remote share by sending a malformed request to the remote service (this issue only affects installations sharing an AFS file system when the afsacl.so VFS module is loaded)
A remote buffer overflow vulnerability affecting the NSS lookup capability of the remote winbindd daemon
