−

−
*  Samba now follows Windows behaviour as a kerberos client, requesting a CIFS/ ticket [https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7893 bug #7893].
 
−
*  Kerberos authentication fails when security blobsize is greater than 16 kB [https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6911 bug #6911].
 
  
−
====New Kerberos behaviour====
+
== Samba 3.5.10 ==
 +
('''Updated 26-July-2011''')
  
−
A new parameter 'client use spnego principal' defaults to 'no' and means Samba will use CIFS/hostname to obtain a kerberos ticket, acting more like Windows when using Kerberos against a CIFS server in smbclient, Winbind and other Samba client tools. This will change which servers we will successfully negotiate Kerberos connections to. This is due to Samba no longer trusting a server-provided hint which is not available from Windows 2008 or later. For correct operation with all clients, all aliases for a server should be recorded as a as a servicePrincipalName on the server's record in AD.
+
* Tuesday, July 26 - Samba 3.5.10 has been released to address [http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-2522 CVE-2011-2522] and [http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-2694 CVE-2011-2694].

:  All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to a buffer overrun vulnerability. The sid_parse() function (and related dom_sid_parse() function in the source4 code) do not correctly check their input lengths when reading a binary representation of a Windows SID (Security ID). This allows a malicious client to send a sid that can overflow the stack variable that is being used to store the SID in the Samba smbd server.

=====General changes:=====
 
−
* Add support for full Windows timestamp resolution
 
−
* The Using Samba HTML book has been removed.
 
−
* 'net', 'smbclient' and libsmbclient can use credentials cached by Winbind.
 
−
* The default value of "wide links" has been changed to "no".
 
−
 
−
=====Protocol changes:=====
 
−
* Experimental implementation of SMB2
 
−
 
−
=====Printing Changes:=====
 
−
* Add encryption support for connections to a CUPS server
 
−
 
−
=====Winbind changes:=====
 
−
* Major refactoring
 
−
* Asynchronous
 
−
 
−
=====VFS modules:=====
 
−
* New vfs_scannedonly module has been added.
 
−
 
−
 
−
====General changes:====
 
−
 
−
Support for full Windows timestamp resolution has been added. This effectively makes us use Windows' full 100ns timestamp resolution if supported by the kernel (2.6.22 and higher) and the glibc (2.6 and higher).
 
−
 
−
The Using Samba HTML book has been removed from the Samba tarball. It is still available at http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/toc.html.
 
−
 
−
Samba client tools like 'net', 'smbclient' and libsmbclient can use the user credentials cached by Winbind at logon time. This is very useful e.g. when connecting to a Samba server using Nautilus without re-entering username and password. This feature is enabled by default and can be disabled per application by setting the LIBSMBCLIENT_NO_CCACHE environment variable.
 
−
 
−
The default value of "wide links" has been changed to "no" to avoid an insecure default configuration ("wide links = yes" and "unix extensions = yes"). For more details, please see http://www.samba.org/samba/news/symlink_attack.html.
 
−
 
−
 
−
====Protocol changes====
 
−
 
−
An EXPERIMENTAL implementation of the SMB2 protocol has been added. SMB2 can be enabled by setting "max protocol = smb2". SMB2 is a new implementation of the SMB protocol used by Windows Vista and higher.
 
−
 
−
====Printing Changes====
 
−
 
−
A new parameter "cups encrypt" has been added to control whether connections to CUPS servers will be encrypted or not. The default is to use unencrypted connections.
 
−
 
−
====Winbind changes====
 
−
 
−
The Winbind daemon has been refactored internally to be asynchronous. The new Winbind will not be blocked by running 'getent group' or 'getent passwd'.
 
−
 
−
====VFS modules====
 
−
 
−
A new VFS module "scannedonly" has been added. This is a filter that talks to an antivirus-engine and stores whether a file is clean or not. Users do only see clean files on their filesystem.
 
−
 
−
 
−
===Changes===
 
−
 
−
====smb.conf changes====
 
−
 
−
  Parameter Name                      Description    Default
 
−
  --------------                      -----------    -------
 
−
