+                   Release Notes for Samba 3.3.12
+                           March 8, 2010
+                   ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2010-0728.
+
+
+o  CVE-2010-0728:
+   In Samba releases 3.5.0, 3.4.6 and 3.3.11, new code
+   was added to fix a problem with Linux asynchronous IO handling.
+   This code introduced a bad security flaw on Linux platforms if the
+   binaries were built on Linux platforms with libcap support.
+   The flaw caused all smbd processes to inherit CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE
+   capabilities, allowing all file system access to be allowed
+   even when permissions should have denied access.
+
+
+Changes since 3.5.0
+-------------------
+
+
+o   Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
+    * BUG 7222: Fix for CVE-2010-0728.
