CWE-ID:
CWE-20
Exploitation vector: Network
Exploit availability: Yes
Vulnerable software:

Vendor: Samba
Description
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The RPC code generator in Samba 3.x before 3.4.16, 3.5.x before 3.5.14, and 3.6.x before 3.6.4 does not implement validation of an array length in a manner consistent with validation of array memory allocation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted RPC call.
Mitigation
Install update from vendor's website.
Vulnerable software versions
Samba: 3.0 - 3.0.37, 3.1 - 3.1.0, 3.2 - 3.2.15, 3.3 - 3.3.16, 3.4 - 3.4.15
