What is CVE-2004-0807?
Certain versions of Samba, specifically 3.0.6 and earlier, contain a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to initiate a denial of service. This can occur through the use of specially crafted requests, which cause the Samba server to spawn new processes that enter an infinite loop. This leads to memory exhaustion and can severely impact the availability and functionality of the affected service.
