Samba - Root credential remote code execution

[ddavison]

Samba contains a serious security flaw, discovered recently:
https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2012-1182

Will you be releasing a new version of FreeNas which incorporates the patch for Samba?
Until there is a new release available, how can end-users patch the Samba version in the current installations?

Hope someone can look into it soon!
