Operating Systems Linux Debian Applying patch for Samba version 4.1.17 Post 303001547 by hicksd8 on Monday 7th of August 2017 06:46:11 AM

If 4.1.7 contains a fix for the problem (which is what the release note says) that you are worried about, then unless you have other concerns and/or samba has other vulnerabilities, I suggest that if it's not broken, Don't try and fix it. You don't know whether an upgrade will break something else.

Look and see what patches have been issued for 4.1.7 and why. Apply the patches for anything that you're concerned about.

Upgrade to a newer version if that offers new functionality that you could use.

STG-SINK(1)							   StGit Manual 						       STG-SINK(1)

NAME
stg-sink - Send patches deeper down the stack SYNOPSIS
stg sink [-t <target patch>] [-n] [<patches>] DESCRIPTION
This is the opposite operation of linkstg:float[]: move the specified patches down the stack. It is for example useful to group stable patches near the bottom of the stack, where they are less likely to be impacted by the push of another patch, and from where they can be more easily committed or pushed. If no patch is specified on command-line, the current patch gets sunk. By default patches are sunk to the bottom of the stack, but the --to option allows to place them under any applied patch. Sinking internally involves popping all patches (or all patches including <target patch>), then pushing the patches to sink, and then (unless --nopush is also given) pushing back into place the formerly-applied patches. OPTIONS
-n, --nopush Do not push back on the stack the formerly-applied patches. Only the patches to sink are pushed. -t TARGET, --to TARGET Specify a target patch to place the patches below, instead of sinking them to the bottom of the stack. -k, --keep Keep the local changes. STGIT
Part of the StGit suite - see linkman:stg[1] StGit 03/13/2012 STG-SINK(1)
