CVE-2021-23192  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Alpine:3.13 samba to version 4.13.17-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream samba package and not the samba package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.13 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the way samba implemented DCE/RPC. If a client to a Samba server sent a very large DCE/RPC request, and chose to fragment it, an attacker could replace later fragments with their own data, bypassing the signature requirements.
