CVE-2019-10218

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions samba versions prior to 4.11.2 samba versions prior to 4.10.10 samba versions prior to 4.9.15

Description A flaw was found in the samba client where a malicious server can supply a pathname to the client with separators, allowing the client to access files and folders outside of the SMB network pathnames. This could enable an attacker to create files outside of the current working directory using the privileges of the client user. The issue is due to incorrect restriction of the directory path name with limited access.

Recommendations For samba versions prior to 4.11.2, update to version 4.11.2 or later. For samba versions prior to 4.10.10, update to version 4.10.10 or later. For samba versions prior to 4.9.15, update to version 4.9.15 or later.
