Issues updating Red Hat Gluster Storage specifically Samba - RHSA-2017-2338

Latest response

In regards to RHSA-2017-2338, I have a RHEL 7 server box being used for software testing/development in an enterprise environment. Our Nessus scanner is detecting numerous samba files such as 'samba,' 'samba-client,' 'samba-common-libs,' 'samba-libs,' etc all require updates as they are currently on version 4.6.2 while the current version is 4.6.3.

I have run 'yum update' and additionally specifically pointed yum to the packages 'yum update samba-client' however it states all packages are up to date. I even uninstalled samba 4.6.2 but this is still the only version available for me to install. This machine does have an active subscription and only the default repos have been configured. I was hoping an update wasn't officially available, but after reading the advisory it seems there is one.

I'm fairly new to RHEL and linux in general so hopefully I'm missing something simple. Thanks for your time.
