CVE ID         : CVE-2017-8849

Sebastian Krahmer discovered that a programming error in the mount
helper binary of the Smb4k Samba network share browser may result in
local privilege escalation.

For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.2.1-2~deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your smb4k packages.
