NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream samba-dc-libs-debuginfo package and not the samba-dc-libs-debuginfo package as distributed by Amazon-Linux. See How to fix? for Amazon-Linux:2022 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the way samba, as an Active Directory Domain Controller, is able to support an RODC (read-only domain controller). This would allow an RODC to print administrator tickets.
