SAMBA Long Password Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Samba is an open source software suite that provides seamless file and print services to SMB/CIFS clients. Certain older versions of Samba had a remotely exploitable buffer overflow vulnerability. This vulnerability was in the password function of the authentication mechanism which is to say a user could supply an overly long password to the Samba server and trigger a buffer overflow.
