Release Notes Samba 4.15.1.

Samba 4.15.0

Release Notes for Samba 4.15.0
September 20, 2021

Release Announcements

This is the first stable release of the Samba 4.15 release series. Please read the release notes carefully before upgrading.

Removed SMB (development) dialects

The following SMB (development) dialects are no longer supported: SMB2_22, SMB2_24 and SMB3_10. They are were only supported by Windows technical preview builds. They used to be useful in order to test against the latest Windows versions, but it's no longer useful to have them. If you have them explicitly specified in your smb.conf or an the command line, you need to replace them like this:

  • SMB2_22 => SMB3_00
  • SMB2_24 => SMB3_00
  • SMB3_10 => SMB3_11
Note: that it's typically not useful to specify "client max protocol" or "server max protocol" explicitly to a specific dialect, just leave them unspecified or specify the value "default".

New GPG key

The GPG release key for Samba releases changed from:

pub   dsa1024/6F33915B6568B7EA 2007-02-04 [SC] [expires: 2021-02-05]

New minimum version for the experimental MIT KDC

The build of the AD DC using the system MIT Kerberos, an experimental feature, now requires MIT Kerberos 1.19. An up-to-date Fedora 34 has this version and has backported fixes for the KDC crash bugs CVE-2021-37750 and CVE-2021-36222.

NEW FEATURES/CHANGES

VFS

The effort to modernize Samba's VFS interface is complete and Samba 4.15.0 ships with a modernized VFS designed for the post SMB1 world.

For details please refer to the documentation at source3/modules/The_New_VFS.txt or visit the The_New_VFS.

Bind DLZ: Added the ability to set allow/deny lists for zone transfer clients

Up to now, any client could use a DNS zone transfer request to the bind server, and get an answer from Samba. Now the default behaviour will be to deny those request. Two new options have been added to manage the list of authorized/denied clients for zone transfer requests. In order to be accepted, the request must be issued by a client that is in the allow list and NOT in the deny list.

"server multi channel support" no longer experimental

This option is enabled by default starting with 4.15 (on Linux and FreeBSD). Due to dependencies on kernel APIs of Linux or FreeBSD, it's only possible to use this feature on Linux and FreeBSD for now.

samba-tool available without the ad-dc

The *samba-tool' command is now available when samba is configured "--without-ad-dc". Not all features will work, and some ad-dc specific options have been disabled. The 'samba-tool domain' options, for example, are limited when no ad-dc is present. Samba must still be built with ads in order to enable samba-tool.

Improved command line user experience

Samba utilities did not consistently implement their command line interface. A number of options were requiring to specify values in one tool and not in the other, some options meant different in different tools.

These should be stories of the past now. A new command line parser has been implemented with sanity checking. Also the command line interface has been simplified and provides better control for encryption, signing and kerberos.

Previously many tools silently ignored unknown options. To prevent unexpected behaviour all tools will now consistently reject unknown options.

Also several command line options have a smb.conf variable to control the default now.

All tools are logging to stderr by default. You can use "--debug-stdout" to change the behavior. All servers will log to stderr at early startup until logging is setup to go to a file by default.

Common parser:

Options added:

--client-protection=off|sign|encrypt

Options renamed:

--kerberos       ->    --use-kerberos=required|desired|off
--krb5-ccache    ->    --use-krb5-ccache=CCACHE
--scope          ->    --netbios-scope=SCOPE
--use-ccache     ->    --use-winbind-ccache

Options removed:

-e|--encrypt
-C removed from --use-winbind-ccache
-i removed from --netbios-scope
-S|--signing
Duplicates in command line utils

ldbadd/ldbdel/ldbedit/ldbmodify/ldbrename/ldbsearch:

-e is still available as an alias for --editor, as it used to be.
-s is no longer reported as an alias for --configfile, it never worked that way as it was shadowed by '-s' for '--scope'.

ndrdump:

-l is not available for --load-dso anymore

net:

-l is not available for --long anymore

sharesec:

-V is not available for --viewsddl anymore

smbcquotas:

--user        ->    --quota-user

nmbd:

--log-stdout  ->    --debug-stdout

smbd:

--log-stdout  ->    --debug-stdout

winbindd:

--log-stdout  ->    --debug-stdout

Scanning of trusted domains and enterprise principals

As an artifact from the NT4 times, we still scanned the list of trusted domains on winbindd startup. This is wrong as we never can get a full picture in Active Directory. It is time to change the default value to "No". Also with this change we always use enterprise principals for Kerberos so that the DC will be able to redirect ticket requests to the right DC. This is e.g. needed for one way trusts. The options `winbind use krb5 enterprise principals` and `winbind scan trusted domains` will be deprecated in one of the next releases.

Support for Offline Domain Join (ODJ)

The net utility is now able to support the offline domain join feature as known from the Windows djoin.exe command for many years. Samba's implementation is accessible via the 'net offlinejoin' subcommand. It can provision computers and request offline joining for both Windows and Unix machines. It is also possible to provision computers from Windows (using djoin.exe) and use the generated data in Samba's 'net' utility. The existing options for the provisioning and joining steps are documented in the net(8) manpage.

'samba-tool dns zoneoptions' for aging control

The 'samba-tool dns zoneoptions' command can be used to turn aging on and off, alter the refresh and no-refresh periods, and manipulate the timestamps of existing records.

To turn aging on for a zone, you can use something like this:

 samba-tool dns zoneoptions --aging=1 --refreshinterval=306600

which turns on aging and ensures no records less than five years old are aged out and scavenged. After aging has been on for sufficient time for records to be renewed, the command

 samba-tool dns zoneoptions --refreshinterval=168

will set the refresh period to the standard seven days. Using this two step process will help prevent the temporary loss of dynamic records if scavenging happens before their first renewal.


Marking old records as static or dynamic with 'samba-tool'

A bug in Samba versions prior to 4.9 meant records that were meant to be static were marked as dynamic and vice versa. To fix the timestamps in these domains, it is possible to use the following options, preferably before turning aging on.

  --mark-old-records-static
  --mark-records-dynamic-regex
  --mark-records-static-regex

The "--mark-old-records-static" option will make records older than the specified date static (that is, with a zero timestamp). For example, if you upgraded to Samba 4.9 in November 2018, you could use ensure no old records will be mistakenly interpreted as dynamic using the following option:

 samba-tool dns zoneoptions --mark-old-records-static=2018-11-30

Then, if you know that that will have marked some records as static that should be dynamic, and you know which those are due to your naming scheme, you can use commands like:

 samba-tool dns zoneoptions --mark-records-dynamic-regex='\w+-desktop'

where '\w+-desktop' is a perl-compatible regular expression that will match 'bob-desktop', 'alice-desktop', and so on.

These options are deliberately long and cumbersome to type, so people have a chance to think before they get to the end. You can make a mess if you get it wrong.

All 'samba-tool dns zoneoptions' modes can be given a "--dry-run/-n" argument that allows you to inspect the likely results before going ahead.

NOTE: for aging to work, you need to have "dns zone scavenging = yes" set in the smb.conf of at least one server.

DNS tombstones are now deleted as appropriate

When all the records for a DNS name have been deleted, the node is put in a tombstoned state (separate from general AD object tombstoning, which deleted nodes also go through). These tombstones should be cleaned up periodically. Due to a conflation of scavenging and tombstoning, we have only been deleting tombstones when aging is enabled.

If you have a lot of tombstoned DNS nodes (that is, DNS names for which you have removed all the records), cleaning up these DNS tombstones may take a noticeable time.

DNS tombstones use a consistent timestamp format

DNS records use an hours-since-1601 timestamp format except for in the case of tombstone records where a 100-nanosecond-intervals-since-1601 format is used (this latter format being the most common in Windows). We had mixed that up, which might have had strange effects in zones where aging was enabled (and hence tombstone timestamps were used).

samba-tool dns update and RPC changes

The dnsserver DCERPC pipe can be used by 'samba-tool' and Windows tools to manipulate dns records on the remote server. A bug in Samba meant it was not possible to update an existing DNS record to change the TTL. The general behaviour of RPC updates is now closer to that of Windows.

'samba-tool dns update' is now a bit more careful in rejecting and warning you about malformed IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

CVE-2021-3671: Crash in Heimdal KDC and updated security release policy

An unuthenticated user can crash the AD DC KDC by omitting the server name in a TGS-REQ. Per Samba's updated security process a specific security release was not made for this issue as it is a recoverable Denial Of Service. See Samba_Security_Process

samba-tool domain backup offline with the LMDB backend

'samba-tool domain backup offline', when operating with the LMDB backend now correctly takes out locks against concurrent modification of the database during the backup. If you use this tool on a Samba AD DC using LMDB, you should upgrade to this release for safer backups.

REMOVED FEATURES

  • Tru64 ACL support has been removed from this release. The last supported release of Tru64 UNIX was in 2012.
  • NIS support has been removed from this release. This is not available in Linux distributions anymore.
  • The DLZ DNS plugin is no longer built for Bind versions 9.8 and 9.9, which have been out of support since 2018.
