New samba packages are available for Slackware 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0, 12.0,

More details about the issues may be found in the Common

Here are the details from the Slackware 12.2 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/samba-3.2.13-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz: Upgraded.
This upgrade fixes the following security issues:
o CVE-2009-1888:
In Samba 3.0.31 to 3.3.5 (inclusive), an uninitialized read of a
data value can potentially affect access control when "dos filemode"
is set to "yes".
o CVE-2009-1886:
In Samba 3.2.0 to 3.2.12 (inclusive), the smbclient commands dealing
with file names treat user input as a format string to asprintf.
With a maliciously crafted file name smbclient can be made
to execute code triggered by the server.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)

Where to find the new packages:

HINT: Getting slow download speeds from ftp.slackware.com?
Give slackware.osuosl.org a try. This is another primary FTP site
for Slackware that can be considerably faster than downloading
directly from ftp.slackware.com.

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating additional FTP and rsync hosting
to the Slackware project! :-)

Also see the "Get Slack" section on http://slackware.com for
additional mirror sites near you.
