>
> * CVE-2007-5398
> Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research discovered that nmbd did not properly
> check the length of netbios packets. When samba is configured as a WINS
> server, a remote attacker could send multiple crafted requests resulting
> in the execution of arbitrary code with root privileges.
> * CVE-2007-4572
> Samba developers discovered that nmbd could be made to overrun a buffer
> during the processing of GETDC logon server requests. When samba is
> configured as a Primary or Backup Domain Controller, a remote attacker
