Synopsis:	Important: samba3x security update
Issue date:	2011-03-01
CVE Names:	CVE-2011-0719

A flaw was found in the way Samba handled file descriptors. If an 
attacker were able to open a large number of file descriptors on the 
Samba server, they could flip certain stack bits to "1" values, 
resulting in the Samba server (smbd) crashing. (CVE-2011-0719)

After installing this update, the smb service will be restarted 
automatically.
