Bug description:
  CVE-2012-1182 was recently made public for a remote, unauthenticated,
  root code execution flaw in most samba versions 3.0+:

  https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2012-1182

  I believe Ubuntu's packages to be vulnerable.  As the CVE is already
  public and patches are in the wild, I am flagging this as a security
  vulnerability but will un-privatize it shortly.
