+                   =============================
+                   Release Notes for Samba 3.3.8
+		        September, 29  2009
+                   =============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2009-2813 and CVE-2009-2948.
+
+   o CVE-2009-2813:
+     In all versions of Samba later than 3.0.11, connecting to the home
+     share of a user will use the root of the filesystem
+     as the home directory if this user is misconfigured to have
+     an empty home directory in /etc/passwd.
+
+   o CVE-2009-2948:
+     If mount.cifs is installed as a setuid program, a user can pass it a
+     credential or password path to which he or she does not have access and
+     then use the --verbose option to view the first line of that file.
+     All known Samba versions are affected.
