issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 19.04 and Ubuntu
19.10. (CVE-2019-14902)
Robert Święcki discovered that Samba incorrectly handled certain character
conversions when the log level is set to 3 or above. In certain
environments, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
Samba to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-14907)
