From ${URL}: Summary: In Samba's SAMR server we neglect to ensure that attempted password changes will update the bad password count, nor set the lockout flags. This would allow a user unlimited attempts against the password by simply calling ChangePasswordUser2 repeatedly. This is available without any other authentication. Description: Samba versions 3.4.0 and above allow the administrator to implement locking out Samba accounts after a number of bad password attempts. However, all released versions of Samba did not implement this check for password changes, such as are available over multiple SAMR and RAP interfaces, allowing password guessing attacks. As this was found during an internal audit of the Samba code there are no currently known exploits for this problem (as of March 11th 2014).

CVE-2013-4496 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-4496): Samba 3.x before 3.6.23, 4.0.x before 4.0.16, and 4.1.x before 4.1.6 does not enforce the password-guessing protection mechanism for all interfaces, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via brute-force ChangePasswordUser2 (1) SAMR or (2) RAP attempts.
No vulnerable packages in 3.6, 4.0 and 4.1 series left in the tree. <3.6 is package masked # Lars Wendler <polynomial-c@gentoo.org> (14 Mar 2014) # Masked for security reasons. # Do NOT remove this mask or the affected packages without speaking to # bonsaikitten first! You have been warned! <net-fs/samba-3.6
