[Bug 978458] Re: CVE-2012-1182: "root" credential remote code execution

[Tyler Hicks]

Here is my proposed debdiff for Precise. I'll need a sponsor for this to
make it into the release.

I've built a package locally with this debdiff. I sanity checked it
using the 'umt compare-log', 'umt compare-bin', and 'umt check' tools. I
tested it with the reproducers from ZDI, as well as test-samba.py in the
qa-regression-testing project. The reproducers were mitigated with the
update and tset-samba.py passed successfully.

** Patch added: "samba_3.6.3-2ubuntu2.debdiff"

Bug description:
  CVE-2012-1182 was recently made public for a remote, unauthenticated,
  root code execution flaw in most samba versions 3.0+:

  https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2012-1182

  I believe Ubuntu's packages to be vulnerable.  As the CVE is already
  public and patches are in the wild, I am flagging this as a security
  vulnerability but will un-privatize it shortly.
