==============================
+ Release Notes for Samba 3.6.23
+ March 11, 2014
+ ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address
+CVE-2013-4496 (Password lockout not enforced for SAMR password changes).
+
+o CVE-2013-4496:
+ Samba versions 3.4.0 and above allow the administrator to implement
+ locking out Samba accounts after a number of bad password attempts.
+
+ However, all released versions of Samba did not implement this check for
+ password changes, such as are available over multiple SAMR and RAP
+ interfaces, allowing password guessing attacks.
+
+
+Changes since 3.6.22:
+---------------------
+
+o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
+ * BUG 10245: CVE-2013-4496: Enforce password lockout for SAMR password
+ changes.
+
+
+o Stefan Metzmacher <metze@samba.org>
+ * BUG 10245: CVE-2013-4496: Enforce password lockout for SAMR password
+ changes.
