  A flaw was found in the way Samba handled file descriptors. If an attacker
  were able to open a large number of file descriptors on the Samba server,
  they could flip certain stack bits to '1' values, resulting in the Samba
  server (smbd) crashing. (CVE-2011-0719)

  Red Hat would like to thank the Samba team for reporting this issue.

  Users of Samba are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. After installing this
  update, the smb service will be restarted automatically.");
