samba vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 19.10
- Ubuntu 19.04
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Samba.

Software Description:
- samba: SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix

Details:

Andreas Oster discovered that the Samba DNS management server incorrectly
handled certain records. An authenticated attacker could possibly use this
issue to crash Samba, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-14861)

Isaac Boukris discovered that Samba did not enforce the Kerberos
DelegationNotAllowed feature restriction, contrary to expectations.
(CVE-2019-14870)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
