+
+ Samba 4.2.x and 4.3.x ports have been updated to address
+ BadLock(http://badlock.org) vulnerability, as well as few other
+ discovered.
+
+ Please note that Samba 4.1.x and older versions are also affected by
+ the issues fixed with this release but are not supported anymore. It is
+ strongly recommend to upgrade to a recent version at your earliest
+ convenience.
+
+ The security updates include new smb.conf options and a number of
+ stricter behaviours to prevent Man in the Middle attacks. Between these
+ changes, compatibility with a large number of older software versions
+ has been lost in the default configuration.
+
+ For more information about the related behaviour changes and the
+ security issues please visit:
