If you cannot patch yet, restrict Samba user maintainer privileges and avoid exposing the vulnerable Webmin interface to untrusted networks. Monitor vendor channels for official patches or updates addressing this vulnerability.

Description

Webmin versions up to 2.670 contain an OS command injection vulnerability in the samba/save_euser.cgi script. This flaw allows authenticated Samba user maintainers to inject arbitrary commands via the unvalidated opts parameter. Exploitation involves embedding shell metacharacters in account option flags used by create_user and modify_user functions, resulting in command execution with root privileges.
