I think is a matter of relevance: IE holes come in a "combo meal" Detail Desc + sample + any side item + toy ( If you want to play with the sample code )
This samba hole on ther other hand does not even have a concrete way to take advantage of.
From samba.org: A security hole has been discovered in versions 2.2.2 through 2.2.6 of Samba that could potentially allow an attacker to gain root access on the target machine. The word "potentially" is used because there is no known exploit of this bug, and the Samba Team has not been able to craft one ourselves. However, the seriousness of the problem warrants this immediate 2.2.7 release.
