CVE-2025-10230 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:25.04.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream samba package and not the samba package as distributed by Ubuntu.
A flaw was found in Samba, in the front-end WINS hook handling: NetBIOS names from registration packets are passed to a shell without proper validation or escaping. Unsanitized NetBIOS name data from WINS registration packets are inserted into a shell command and executed by the Samba Active Directory Domain Controller’s wins hook, allowing an unauthenticated network attacker to achieve remote command execution as the Samba process.
