Users of a Samba server configured as an Active Directory domain controller affected by elevation of privilege vulnerabilities

Summary

This vulnerability applies to functionality when the system is acting as an Active Directory domain controller. No Buffalo NAS products use this functionality, and so no Buffalo sytems are affected by this vulnerability. The Kerberos implementation in Samba is essentially identical to the Windows implementation where this vulnerability is concerned, so while this issue was initially reported by Microsoft, it is assumed that Linux implementations of Samba acting as an AD Server are also affected. 

Vulnerability ID Vulnerability Overview
CVE-2022-37966 Windows Kerberos RC4-HMAC Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability 
CVE-2022-37967 Windows Kerberos Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

CVE-2022-45141 Since the Windows Kerberos RC4-HMAC Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability was disclosed by Microsoft on Nov 8 2022 and per RFC8429 it is assumed that rc4-hmac is weak, Vulnerable Samba Active Directory DCs will issue rc4-hmac encrypted tickets despite the target server supporting better encryption (eg aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96).
