Release Announcements
---------------------
This is the latest stable release of the Samba 4.15 release series.
Important Notes
===============
There have been a few regressions in the security release 4.15.2:
o CVE-2020-25717: A user on the domain can become root on domain members.
https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2020-25717.html
PLEASE [RE-]READ!
The instructions have been updated and some workarounds
initially adviced for 4.15.2 are no longer required and
should be reverted in most cases.
o BUG-14902: User with multiple spaces (eg Fred<space><space>Nurk) become
un-deletable. While this release should fix this bug, it is
adviced to have a look at the bug report for more detailed
