| Category: Fedora Local Security Checks | Risk factor: High | Added: 4 Dec 2008 |
| The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory FEDORA-2008-10638 (samba). Samba is the suite of programs by which a lot of PC-related machines share files, printers, and other information (such as lists of available files and printers). The Windows NT, OS/2, and Linux operating systems support this natively, and add-on packages can enable the same thing for DOS, Windows, VMS, UNIX of all kinds, MVS, and more. This package provides an SMB/CIFS server that can be used to provide network services to SMB/CIFS clients. Samba uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT need the NetBEUI (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol. - Update Information: [9]http://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2008-4314.html Solution: Get the newest Fedora Updates Risk factor: High |
