Samba [SOLVED]

<< < (4/4)

newtusmaximus:
Thank you.   Please advise where I can find the procedure for checking this ?



UPDATE
Have installed latest updates just now.

menu/settings/Firewall configuration     Status On    DENY Incoming     ALLOW outgoing    RULES -  BLANK

Therefore presume my pc has not been vulnerable? as no rules evident

Is that a correct assumption??

Hello,

this week there were quite a few updates for Samba.

I noticed tonight when checking UFW, there were Samba rules that bypass the default Deny incoming, by having an "allow connections from ANYWHERE" in capitals like this from a range of ports.

Ufw would not allow editing of this rule saying Ufw had made the rule.

I removed these rules rebooted and checked again if they had enabled on startup, they are currently not enabled, I will keep an eye on it.

I would suggest everyone checks their current ufw status to ensure it is not allowing access from anywhere to their system since these updates from Ubuntu.
