==============================
+ Release Notes for Samba 4.9.18
+ January 21, 2020
+ ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address the following defects:
+
+o CVE-2019-14902: Replication of ACLs set to inherit down a subtree on AD
+ Directory not automatic.
+o CVE-2019-14907: Crash after failed character conversion at log level 3 or
+ above.
+o CVE-2019-19344: Use after free during DNS zone scavenging in Samba AD DC.
+
+
+=======
+Details
+=======
+
+o CVE-2019-14902:
+ The implementation of ACL inheritance in the Samba AD DC was not complete,
+ and so absent a 'full-sync' replication, ACLs could get out of sync between
+ domain controllers.
+
+o CVE-2019-14907:
+ When processing untrusted string input Samba can read past the end of the
+ allocated buffer when printing a "Conversion error" message to the logs.
+
+o CVE-2019-19344:
+ During DNS zone scavenging (of expired dynamic entries) there is a read of
+ memory after it has been freed.
+
+For more details and workarounds, please refer to the security advisories.
+
+
+Changes since 4.9.17:
+---------------------
+
+o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
+ * BUG 12497: CVE-2019-14902: Replication of ACLs down subtree on AD Directory

+
+o Gary Lockyer <gary@catalyst.net.nz>
