+                   Release Notes for Samba 3.6.23
+                           March 11, 2014
+                   ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address
+CVE-2013-4496 (Password lockout not enforced for SAMR password changes).
+
+o  CVE-2013-4496:
+   Samba versions 3.4.0 and above allow the administrator to implement
+   locking out Samba accounts after a number of bad password attempts.
+
+   However, all released versions of Samba did not implement this check for
+   password changes, such as are available over multiple SAMR and RAP
+   interfaces, allowing password guessing attacks.
+
+
+Changes since 3.6.22:
+---------------------
+
+o   Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
+    * BUG 10245: CVE-2013-4496: Enforce password lockout for SAMR password
+      changes.
