+ 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.
