Speculation:
- Pretty unusual to have this much lead time.
- Probably involved circumvention of controls (think: "Everyone" group able
to read sensitive stuff in any share)
- Probably a deep architectural flaw (or a conceptually understandable
implementation bug that both Microsoft and Samba teams made independently)
- Workarounds unlikely.
- Hackers and InfoSec folks are all over this, so anticipate risks with
zero day exploits prior to April 12.
