CVE-2004-0082  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest samba to version 3.0.7 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 Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

The mksmbpasswd shell script (mksmbpasswd.sh) in Samba 3.0.0 and 3.0.1, when creating an account but marking it as disabled, may overwrite the user password with an uninitialized buffer, which could enable the account with a more easily guessable password.
