Description: Samba has been updated to fix a security problem:

CVE-2008-1105: Secunia research discovered  vulnerability in Samba, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
"receive_smb_raw()" function in lib/util_sock.c when parsing SMB
packets. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via
an overly large SMB packet received in a client context.
