============================================================ Subject:     Boundary failure when parsing SMB responses
==              can result in a buffer overrun
=== CVE ID#:     CVE-2008-1105
=== Versions:    Samba 3.0.0 - 3.0.29 (inclusive)
=== Summary:     Specifically crafted SMB responses can result
==              in a heap overflow in the Samba client code.
==              Because the server process, smbd, can itself
==              act as a client during operations such as
==              printer notification and domain authentication,
==              this issue affects both Samba client and server
==              installations.
