Samba |
| Detailed Description |
The version of Samba running on the remote host is 4.16.x prior to 4.16.7.
It is, therefore, potentially affected by a buffer overflow condition in the bundled Kerberos libraries due to a miss calculation of bytes to allocate for a buffer. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted ticket containing Privilege Attribute Certificates, to cause a denial of service condition or read beyond the memory bounds.
