OS X 10.9.2 and SMB2
posted by Jean-Francois Panisset on Feb. 25, 2014, 2:50 p.m.
From the list of security fixes in 10.9.2:

Finder
Available for: OS X Mavericks 10.9 and 10.9.1
Impact: Accessing a file's ACL via Finder may lead to other users
gaining unauthorized access to files
Description: Accessing a file's ACL via Finder may corrupt the ACLs
on the file. This issue was addressed through improved handling of
ACLs.
CVE-ID
CVE-2014-1264

So that's a good thing if it is indeed fixed. Unfortunately, another claimed fix:

"Improved reliability when connecting to a file server using SMB2"

isn't working for me, but that may be because we're running pretty old code (8.x) on our BlueArc.
