+ Release Notes for Samba 4.0.2
+ January 30, 2013
+ =============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address
+CVE-2013-0213 (Clickjacking issue in SWAT) and
+CVE-2013-0214 (Potential XSRF in SWAT).
+
+o CVE-2013-0213:
+ All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to clickjacking in the
+ Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). When the SWAT pages are integrated into
+ a malicious web page via a frame or iframe and then overlaid by other content,
+ an attacker could trick an administrator to potentially change Samba settings.
+
+ In order to be vulnerable, SWAT must have been installed and enabled
+ either as a standalone server launched from inetd or xinetd, or as a
+ CGI plugin to Apache. If SWAT has not been installed or enabled (which
+ is the default install state for Samba) this advisory can be ignored.
+
+o CVE-2013-0214:
+ All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to a cross-site
+ request forgery in the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT). By guessing a
+ user's password and then tricking a user who is authenticated with SWAT into
+ clicking a manipulated URL on a different web page, it is possible to manipulate
+ SWAT.
+
+ In order to be vulnerable, the attacker needs to know the victim's password.
+ Additionally SWAT must have been installed and enabled either as a standalone
+ server launched from inetd or xinetd, or as a CGI plugin to Apache. If SWAT has
+ not been installed or enabled (which is the default install state for Samba)
+ this advisory can be ignored.

+ * BUG 9577: CVE-2013-0214: Fix potential XSRF in SWAT.

+ Release Notes for Samba 4.0.1
+ January 15, 2013
+ =============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2013-0172.
+
+o CVE-2013-0172:
+ Samba 4.0.0 as an AD DC may provide authenticated users with write access
+ to LDAP directory objects.
+
+ In AD, Access Control Entries can be assigned based on the objectClass
+ of the object. If a user or a group the user is a member of has any
+ access based on the objectClass, then that user has write access to that
+ object.
+
+ Additionally, if a user has write access to any attribute on the object,
+ they may have access to write to all attributes.
+
+ An important mitigation is that anonymous access is totally disabled by
+ default. The second important mitigation is that normal users are
+ typically only given the problematic per-objectClass right via the
+ "pre-windows 2000 compatible access" group, and Samba 4.0.0 incorrectly
+ does not make "authenticated users" part of this group.
+
+Changes since 4.0.0:
+====================
+
+o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
+ * Bug 9554 - CVE-2013-0172 - Samba 4.0 as an AD DC may provide authenticated
+ users with write access to LDAP directory objects.

issue.
+When running an AD DC, you only need to run 'samba' (not smbd/nmbd/winbindd),
+as the required services are co-coordinated by this master binary.
+The tool to administer the Active Directory services is called 'samba-tool'.
