Summary
USN-4510-1 fixed a vulnerability in Samba. This update provides
the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 ESM.
Original advisory details:
Tom Tervoort discovered that the Netlogon protocol implemented by Samba
incorrectly handled the authentication scheme. A remote attacker could use
this issue to forge an authentication token and steal the credentials of

default to "yes", instead of "auto", which will force a secure netlogon
channel. This may result in compatibility issues with older devices. A
future update may allow a finer-grained control over this setting.
