+                   Release Notes for Samba 3.4.12
+                         February 28 2011
+                   ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2011-0719.
+
+
+o  CVE-2011-0719:
+   All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to
+   a denial of service caused by memory corruption. Range
+   checks on file descriptors being used in the FD_SET macro
+   were not present allowing stack corruption. This can cause
+   the Samba code to crash or to loop attempting to select
+   on a bad file descriptor set.
+
+
+Changes since 3.4.11
+--------------------
+
+
+o   Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
+    * BUG 7949: Fix DoS in Winbind and smbd with many file descriptors open.
