Multiple flaws were found in Samba's DCE/RPC protocol implementation. A remote authenticated attacker could use this flaw to cause denial of service against the Samba server (high CPU or even a server crash) or even execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the Samba server (root). This flaw could also be used to downgrade a secure DCE/RPC connection by a man-in-the-middle attacker taking control of an Active Directory object and compromising the security of a Samba AD DC. The above applies all possible server roles Samba can operate in.
