Update samba to 3.6.24, security release.
==============================
Release Notes for Samba 3.6.24
June 23, 2014
==============================
This is a security release in order to address
CVE-2014-0244 (Denial of service - CPU loop) and
CVE-2014-3493 (Denial of service - Server crash/memory corruption).
o CVE-2014-0244:
All current released versions of Samba are vulnerable to a denial of
service on the nmbd NetBIOS name services daemon. A malformed packet
can cause the nmbd server to loop the CPU and prevent any further
NetBIOS name service.
This flaw is not exploitable beyond causing the code to loop expending
CPU resources.
o CVE-2014-3493:
All current released versions of Samba are affected by a denial of service
crash involving overwriting memory on an authenticated connection to the
smbd file server.
