Why for the love of god are you still require users to use SMBv1 voor NAS Support?

This is unacceptable from a security standpoint and your responsability as a company towards your end users.

 

Closing topics like below one is not a solution to your flaud implementation for NAS/Samba support.

What is Sonos gonna do to properly support NAS/Samba.

    That thread was closed because of how long it went without a reply. We do close down threads that are old so they don’t get revived with unrelated questions. I’ll be sure to let the team know that people are still talking about support for more updated SMB formats, but I don’t have any news to share on the topic.

    I had some hope we’d see it with the change to the V2 system but since it didn’t make the cut for that I’m back to not expecting it to happen.

    My recommendation is use a small SMB v1 file sharing device or use a NAS to SMB v1 gateway. The gateway is pretty slick if you already have a NAS and a cheap Raspberry Pi Zero W is plenty of computer.  https://stan-miller.livejournal.com/357.html

      I too am having this smb-v2 library addition issue with my newly installed NAS.  I would like to keep using the SONOS apps on all of my devices (several users) but this security issue is deeply concerning.  I will have to look for other controller apps and software moving away from SONOS.  Sad.  I would prefer not to do that.

      Silly to go to that when you can add a NAS to SMB v1 gateway for under $40.

      Free if you already have a device that can connect to your NAS and support SMB v1.

      I read that SMB1 gives Sonos the opportunity to go in through a back door into your  network and snoop around areas they ordinarily would not get access to. The ability to achieve this  was removed  in SMB2 and later versions.

      Why would Sonos go through the aggravation of using SMB to snoop on your Sonos gear when they have full control of the device and can use a number of far less aggravating protocols?
