Fixes CVE-2017-2619:
All versions of Samba prior to 4.6.1, 4.5.7, 4.4.11 are vulnerable to
a malicious client using a symlink race to allow access to areas of
the server file system not exported under the share definition.
Samba uses the realpath() system call to ensure when a client requests
access to a pathname that it is under the exported share path on the
server file system.
Clients that have write access to the exported part of the file system
via SMB1 unix extensions or NFS to create symlinks can race the server
by renaming a realpath() checked path and then creating a symlink. If
the client wins the race it can cause the server to access the new
symlink target after the exported share path check has been done. This
new symlink target can point to anywhere on the server file system.
This is a difficult race to win, but theoretically possible. Note that
the proof of concept code supplied wins the race reliably only when
the server is slowed down using the strace utility running on the
server. Exploitation of this bug has not been seen in the wild.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
