==============================
+ Release Notes for Samba 3.0.37
+ September, 29 2009
+ ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2009-2813 and CVE-2009-2948.
+Please note that Samba 3.0 is not maintained any longer. This security
+release is shipped on a voluntary basis.
+
+ o CVE-2009-2813:
+ In all versions of Samba later than 3.0.11, connecting to the home
+ share of a user will use the root of the filesystem
+ as the home directory if this user is misconfigured to have
+ an empty home directory in /etc/passwd.
+
+ o CVE-2009-2948:
+ If mount.cifs is installed as a setuid program, a user can pass it a
+ credential or password path to which he or she does not have access and
+ then use the --verbose option to view the first line of that file.
+

+
+As 3.0 bugs will not be fixed any longer, it does not make sense to
+create bug reports for this version. If there are any issues, please
+retry with the latest Samba version and file a bug report for that
+version if the issue still exists.
