The vendor has released a fixed package version (2:4.21.4+dfsg-1ubuntu3.1) for Ubuntu 25.04. Applying this update will remediate the vulnerability. Users should perform a standard system update to receive the fix. No additional mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
A vulnerability in Samba allows a remote user to bypass security controls related to group membership changes when using Kerberos authentication. This flaw could enable a user to retain access to network resources even after being removed by an administrator. The issue affects Samba versions prior to the fixed release and is addressed by updating to the patched package version provided by Ubuntu.
