CVE-2016-2113
Samba 4.x before 4.2.11, 4.3.x before 4.3.8, and 4.4.x before 4.4.2 does not verify X.509 certificates from TLS servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof LDAPS and HTTPS servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.58%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
