The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

                The Samba Team announce Samba 1.9.17p2. 

Security fix release: Samba - version 1.9.17p2.

This new stable release fixes a very important security hole in all
versions of Samba.

The security hole allows a remote user to obtain root access on the
Samba server. A program which exploits this bug has been posted to the
internet.

The security hole is only known to affect Samba servers running on
Intel based hardware, and has only been demonstrated for Intel
Linux. It is likley that exploits for other architectures would be
very difficult but the possibility cannot be excluded completely.

This patch fixes the security hole for all platforms.
