+CAN-2004-0686
+-------------
+
+Affected Versions:      Samba 2.2.0 through 2.2.9
+
+A buffer overrun has been located in the code used to support
+the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option.   Affected Samba 
+2.2 installations can avoid this possible security bug by using 
+the hash2 mangling method.  Server installations requiring 
+the hash mangling method are encouraged to upgrade to Samba v2.2.10 
+or v3.0.5.
