Certain versions of Samba are vulnerable to a denial of service condition when handling deferred file open operations during file renaming requests. Successful exploitation allows an authenticated attacker to put the daemon in an infinite loop, causing all functionality to halt.
Upgrade to Samba 3.0.24
Download and apply the upgrade from: http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/old-versions/samba-3.0.24.tar.gz
