CVE-2004-1154: Buffer Overflow

First published: Wed Dec 22 2004(Updated: )

Integer overflow in the Samba daemon (smbd) in Samba 2.x and 3.0.x through 3.0.9 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a Samba request with a large number of security descriptors that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
