No, it is local root exploit. And the patch is attached to that posting.
Just apply it.

Is the *real* problem here that smbfs doesn't understand the moral
equivalent of 'mount -o nosuid/nodev/noexec/no-etc'?

No, the real problem is that both SAMBA 3 and Linux 2.6.x support the
CIFS Extensions for Unix and the guy who complained to BUGTRAQ doesn't
get this.

(BTW, nosuid/nodev/noexec are handled by the VFS, not the individual fs
drivers.)

Read the full thread, it is a userspace problem caused by smbmnt
being setuid root in some distributions.
