Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0625-01 - Samba is an open-source implementation of the Server Message Block protocol and the related Common Internet File System protocol, which allow PC-compatible machines to share files, printers, and various information. Security Fix: A protocol flaw, publicly referred to as Badlock, was found in the Security Account Manager Remote Protocol and the Local Security Authority Remote Protocol. Any authenticated DCE/RPC connection that a client initiates against a server could be used by a man-in-the-middle attacker to impersonate the authenticated user against the SAMR or LSA service on the server. As a result, the attacker would be able to get read/write access to the Security Account Manager database, and use this to reveal all passwords or any other potentially sensitive information in that database.
