                   Release Notes for Samba 4.24.3
                            May 26, 2026
                   ==============================


This is a security release in order to address the following defects:

o CVE-2026-1933:   Missing access checks on reparse point operations

                   On a share marked "read only = yes" and
                   on file handles opened R/O users can set
                   or delete the reparse point xattrs on files
                   that the user has write-access in the file
                   system for.

o CVE-2026-2340:   WORM vfs module does not block overwrites

                   The WORM (Write-Once, Read Many) vfs module
                   is supposed to lock write access to shared
                   files, so they cannot be altered after initial
                   writes. It was allowing files to be overwritten
                   by renaming a newly created file over a protected
                   file.

o CVE-2026-3012:   auto-enrolment GPO installing CA certificate over http
                   without verification

                   To bootstrap a certificate chain a domain member must
                   fetch a certificate without TLS. It was trusting HTTP
                   for this when a more secure encrypted LDAP channel
                   was also available.

o CVE-2026-3238:   Denial of service against AD DC WINS server

                   The WINS server component of the Active
                   Directory Domain controller code in Samba
                   is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference
                   and crash caused by a unauthenticated UDP
                   packet.

o CVE-2026-4408:   Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in Samba DCE/RPC SAMR
                   server

                   Samba file servers and classic (non-AD) domain controllers
                   with samba-dcerpcd started as a system service and with a
                   "check password script" that has the %u substitution
                   character are vulnerable to a remote code execution.

                   https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2026-4408.html


o CVE-2026-4480:   Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in Samba printing
                   subsystem

                   Samba print servers with a "print command"
                   that has the %J substitution character
                   are vulnerable to a Remote Code Execution.
