HP-UX CIFS Server (Samba), Remote Denial of Service (DoS), Execution of Arbitrary Code, Unauthorized Access
Description:
The winbind_name_list_to_sid_string_list function in nsswitch/pam_winbind.c in Samba through 4.1.2 handles invalid require_membership_of group names by accepting authentication by any user, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging an administrator's pam_winbind configuration-file mistake.
