Thilo Uttendorfer discovered that the Samba LDAP server incorrectly handled certain packets. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause the LDAP server to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 15.04 and Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2015-3223)

Jan Kasprzak discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain symlinks. A remote attacker could use this issue to access files outside the exported share path. (CVE-2015-5252)

Stefan Metzmacher discovered that Samba did not enforce signing when creating encrypted connections. If a remote attacker were able to perform a man-in-the-middle attack, this flaw could be exploited to view sensitive information. (CVE-2015-5296)

It was discovered that Samba incorrectly performed access control when using the VFS shadow_copy2 module. A remote attacker could use this issue to access snapshots, contrary to intended permissions.
(CVE-2015-5299)

Douglas Bagnall discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain string lengths. A remote attacker could use this issue to possibly access sensitive information. (CVE-2015-5330)

It was discovered that the Samba LDAP server incorrectly handled certain packets. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause the LDAP server to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 15.04 and Ubuntu 15.10.
(CVE-2015-7540)

Andrew Bartlett discovered that Samba incorrectly checked administrative privileges during creation of machine accounts. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass intended access restrictions in certain environments. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 15.04 and Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2015-8467).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
