NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream samba-winbind-krb5-locator package and not the samba-winbind-krb5-locator package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Netlogon server implementation in smbd in Samba 3.5.x and 3.6.x before 3.6.25, 4.0.x before 4.0.25, 4.1.x before 4.1.17, and 4.2.x before 4.2.0rc5 performs a free operation on an uninitialized stack pointer, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Netlogon packets that use the ServerPasswordSet RPC API, as demonstrated by packets reaching the _netr_ServerPasswordSet function in rpc_server/netlogon/srv_netlog_nt.c.
