+ Release Notes for Samba 4.1.16
+ January 15, 2015
+ ==============================
+
+
+This is a security release in order to address CVE-2014-8143 (Elevation
+of privilege to Active Directory Domain Controller).

+o CVE-2014-8143:
+ Samba's AD DC allows the administrator to delegate
+ creation of user or computer accounts to specific users or groups.

+ additional required check on the UF_SERVER_TRUST_ACCOUNT bit in the
+ userAccountControl attributes.
+
+
+Changes since 4.1.15:
+---------------------
+
+o Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>
