Release Notes for Samba 4.20.4
|
|
August 06, 2024
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the latest stable release of the Samba 4.20 release series.
|
|
|
|
Changes since 4.20.3
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
This only fixes a regression in library version strings in Samba
|
|
4.20.3, see: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15673
|
|
|
|
If you compiled Samba from the sources and don't have other
|
|
applications relying on Samba's public libraries, there's
|
|
no reason to upgrade from 4.20.3 to 4.20.4.
|
|
|
|
o Andreas Schneider <asn@samba.org>
|
|
* BUG 15673: --version-* options are still not ergonomic, and they reject
|
|
tilde characters.
|
|
|
|
o Stefan Metzmacher <metze@samba.org>
|
|
* BUG 15673: --version-* options are still not ergonomic, and they reject
|
|
tilde characters.

Release Notes for Samba 4.20.3
|
|
August 02, 2024
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the latest stable release of the Samba 4.20 release series.
|
|
|
|
LDAP TLS/SASL channel binding support
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The ldap server supports SASL binds with
|
|
kerberos or NTLMSSP over TLS connections
|
|
now (either ldaps or starttls).
|
|
|
|
Setups where 'ldap server require strong auth = allow_sasl_over_tls'
|
|
was required before, can now most likely move to the
|
|
default of 'ldap server require strong auth = yes'.
|
|
|
|
If SASL binds without correct tls channel bindings are required
|
|
'ldap server require strong auth = allow_sasl_without_tls_channel_bindings'
|
|
should be used now, as 'allow_sasl_over_tls' will generate a
|
|
warning in every start of 'samba', as well as '[samba-tool ]testparm'.
|
|
|
|
This is similar to LdapEnforceChannelBinding under
|
|
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
|
|
on Windows.
|
|
|
|
All client tools using ldaps also include the correct
|
|
channel bindings now.
|
|
|
|
smb.conf changes
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Parameter Name Description Default

Release Notes for Samba 4.20.0
|
|
March 27, 2024
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the first stable release of the Samba 4.20 release series.
|
|
Please read the release notes carefully before upgrading.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
New Minimum MIT Krb5 version for Samba AD Domain Controller
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Samba now requires MIT 1.21 when built against a system MIT Krb5 and
|
|
acting as an Active Directory DC. This addresses the issues that were
|
|
fixed in CVE-2022-37967 (KrbtgtFullPacSignature) and ensures that
|
|
Samba builds against the MIT version that allows us to avoid that
|
|
attack.
|
|
|
|
Removed dependency on Perl JSON module
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Distributions are advised that the Perl JSON package is no longer
|
|
required by Samba builds that use the imported Heimdal. The build
|
|
instead uses Perl's JSON::PP built into recent perl5 versions.
|
|
|
|
Current lists of packages required by Samba for major distributions
|
|
are found in the bootstrap/generated-dists/ directory of a Samba
|
|
source tree. While there will be some differences - due to features
|
|
chosen by packagers - comparing these lists with the build dependencies
|
|
in a package may locate other dependencies we no longer require.
|
|
|
|
samba-tool user getpassword / syncpasswords ;rounds= change
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The password access tool "samba-tool user getpassword" and the
|
|
password sync tool "samba-tool user syncpasswords" allow attributes to
|
|
be chosen for output, and accept parameters like
|
|
pwdLastSet;format=GeneralizedTime
|
|
|
|
These attributes then appear, in the same format, as the attributes in
|
|
the LDIF output. This was not the case for the ;rounds= parameter of
|
|
virtualCryptSHA256 and virtualCryptSHA512, for example as
|
|
--attributes="virtualCryptSHA256;rounds=50000"
|
|
|
|
This release makes the behaviour consistent between these two
|
|
features. Installations using GPG-encrypted passwords (or plaintext
|
|
storage) and the rounds= option, will find the output has changed
|
|
|
|
from:
|
|
virtualCryptSHA256: {CRYPT}$5$rounds=2561$hXem.M9onhM9Vuix$dFdSBwF
|
|
|
|
to:
|
|
virtualCryptSHA256;rounds=2561: {CRYPT}$5$rounds=2561$hXem.M9onhM9Vuix$dFdSBwF
|
|
|
|
Group Managed service account client-side features
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
samba-tool has been extended to provide client-side support for Group
|
|
Managed Service accounts. These accounts have passwords that change
|
|
automatically, giving the advantages of service isolation without risk
|
|
of poor, unchanging passwords.
|
|
|
|
Where possible, Samba's existing samba-tool password handling
|
|
commands, which in the past have only operated against the local
|
|
sam.ldb have been extended to permit operation against a remote server
|
|
with authenticated access to "-H ldap://$DCNAME"
|
|
|
|
Supported operations include:
|
|
- reading the current and previous gMSA password via
|
|
"samba-tool user getpassword"

|
New Windows Search Protocol Client
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Samba now by default builds new experimental Windows Search Protocol (WSP)
|
|
command line client "wspsearch"
|
|
|
|
The "wspsearch" cmd-line utility allows a WSP search request to be sent
|
|
to a server (such as a windows server) that has the (WSP)
|
|
Windows Search Protocol service configured and enabled.
|
|
|
|
For more details see the wspsearch man page.
|
|
|
|
Allow 'smbcacls' to save/restore DACLs to file
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
'smbcacls' has been extended to allow DACLs to be saved and restored
|
|
to/from a file. This feature mimics the functionality that windows cmd
|
|
line tool 'icacls.exe' provides. Additionally files created either
|
|
by 'smbcalcs' or 'icacls.exe' are interchangeable and can be used by
|
|
either tool as the same file format is used.
|
|
|
|
New options added are:
|
|
- '--save savefile' Saves DACLs in sddl format to file
|
|
- '--recurse' Performs the '--save' operation above on directory
|
|
and all files/directories below.
|
|
- '--restore savefile' Restores the stored DACLS to files in directory
|
|
|
|
Samba-tool extensions for AD Claims, Authentication Policies and Silos
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
samba-tool now allows users to be associated with claims. In the
|
|
Samba AD DC, claims derive from Active Directory attributes mapped
|
|
into specific names. These claims can be used in rules, which are
|
|
conditional ACEs in a security descriptor, that decide if a user is
|
|
restricted by an authentication policy.
|
|
|
|
samba-tool also allows the creation and management of authentication
|
|
policies, which are rules about where a user may authenticate from,
|
|
if NTLM is permitted, and what services a user may authenticate to.
|
|
|
|
Finally, support is added for the creation and management of
|
|
authentication silos, which are helpful in defining network boundaries
|
|
by grouping users and the services they connect to.
|
|
|
|
Please note: The command line syntax for these tools is not final, and
|
|
may change before the next release, as we gain user feedback. The
|
|
syntax will be locked in once Samba offers 2016 AD Functional Level as
|
|
a default.
|
|
|
|
AD DC support for Authentication Silos and Authentication Policies
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The Samba AD DC now also honours any existing claims, authentication
|
|
policy and authentication silo configuration previously created (eg
|
|
from an import of a Microsoft AD), as well as new configurations
|
|
created with samba-tool. The use of Microsoft's Powershell based
|
|
client tools is not expected to work.
|
|
|
|
To use this feature, the functional level must be set to 2012_R2 or
|
|
later with:
|
|
|
|
ad dc functional level = 2016
|
|
|
|
in the smb.conf.
|
|
|
|
The smb.conf file on each DC must have 'ad dc functional level = 2016'
|
|
set to have the partially complete feature available. This will also,
|
|
at first startup, update the server's own AD entry with the configured
|
|
functional level.
|
|
|
|
For new domains, add these parameters to 'samba-tool provision'
|
|
|
|
--option="ad dc functional level = 2016" --function-level=2016
|
|
|
|
The second option, setting the overall domain functional level
|
|
indicates that all DCs should be at this functional level.
|
|
|
|
To raise the domain functional level of an existing domain, after
|
|
updating the smb.conf and restarting Samba run
|
|
samba-tool domain schemaupgrade --schema=2019
|
|
samba-tool domain functionalprep --function-level=2016
|
|
samba-tool domain level raise --domain-level=2016 --forest-level=2016
|
|
|
|
This support is still new, so is not enabled by default in this
|
|
release. The above instructions are set at 2016, which while not
|
|
complete, matches what our testing environment validates.
|
|
|
|
Conditional ACEs and Resource Attribute ACEs
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Ordinary Access Control Entries (ACEs) unconditionally allow or deny
|
|
access to a given user or group. Conditional ACEs have an additional
|
|
section that describes conditions under which the ACE applies. If the
|
|
conditional expression is true, the ACE works like an ordinary ACE,
|
|
otherwise it is ignored. The condition terms can refer to claims,
|
|
group memberships, and attributes on the object itself. These
|
|
attributes are described in Resource Attribute ACEs that occur in the
|
|
object's System Access Control List (SACL). Conditional ACEs are
|
|
described in Microsoft documentation.
|
|
|
|
Conditional ACE evaluation is controlled by the "acl claims
|
|
evaluation" smb.conf option. The default value is "AD DC only" which
|
|
enables them in AD DC settings. The other option is "never", which
|
|
disables them altogether. There is currently no option to enable them
|
|
on the file server (this is likely to change in future releases).
|
|
|
|
The Security Descriptor Definition Language has extensions for
|
|
conditional ACEs and resource attribute ACEs; these are now supported
|
|
by Samba.
|
|
|
|
Service Witness Protocol [MS-SWN]
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In a ctdb cluster it is now possible to provide
|
|
the SMB witness service that allows clients to
|
|
monitor their current smb connection to cluster
|
|
node A by asking cluster node B to notify the
|
|
client if the ip address from node A or the
|
|
whole node A becomes unavailable.
|
|
|
|
For disk shares in a ctdb cluster
|
|
SMB2_SHARE_CAP_SCALEOUT is now always returned
|
|
for SMB3 tree connect responses.
|
|
|
|
If the witness service is active
|
|
SMB2_SHARE_CAP_CLUSTER is now also returned.
|
|
|
|
In order to activate the witness service
|
|
"rpc start on demand helpers = no" needs to
|
|
be configured in the global section.
|
|
At the same time the 'samba-dcerpcd' service
|
|
needs to be started explicitly, typically
|
|
with the '--libexec-rpcds' option in order
|
|
to make all available services usable.
|
|
One important aspect is that tcp ports
|
|
135 (for the endpoint mapper) and various
|
|
ports in the 'rpc server dynamic port range'
|
|
will be used to provide the witness service
|
|
(rpcd_witness).
|
|
|
|
ctdb provides a '47.samba-dcerpcd.script' in order
|
|
to manage the samba-dcerpcd.service.
|
|
Typically as systemd service, but that's up
|
|
to the packager and/or admin.
|
|
|
|
Please note that current windows client
|
|
requires SMB2_SHARE_CAP_CONTINUOUS_AVAILABILITY
|
|
in addition to SMB2_SHARE_CAP_CLUSTER in order
|
|
to make use of the witness service.
|
|
But SMB2_SHARE_CAP_CONTINUOUS_AVAILABILITY implies
|
|
the windows clients always ask for persistent handle
|
|
(which are not implemented in samba yet), so
|
|
that every open generates a warning in the
|
|
windows smb client event log.
|
|
That's why SMB2_SHARE_CAP_CONTINUOUS_AVAILABILITY
|
|
is not returned by default.
|
|
An explicit 'smb3 share cap:CONTINUOUS AVAILABILITY = yes'
|
|
is needed.
|
|
|
|
There are also new 'net witness' commands in order
|
|
to let the admin list active client registrations
|
|
or ask specific clients to move their smb connection
|
|
to another cluster node. These are available:
|
|
|
|
net witness list
|
|
net witness client-move
|
|
net witness share-move
|
|
net witness force-unregister
|
|
net witness force-response
|
|
|
|
Consult 'man net' or 'net witness help' for further details.

REMOVED FEATURES
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Get locally logged on users from utmp
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The Workstation Service Remote Protocol [MS-WKST] calls NetWkstaGetInfo
|
|
level 102 and NetWkstaEnumUsers level 0 and 1 return the list of locally
|
|
logged on users. Samba was getting the list from utmp, which is not
|
|
Y2038 safe. This feature has been completely removed and Samba will
|
|
always return an empty list.
|
