From VID-793A0072-7822-11E9-81E2-005056A311D1:

The samba project reports:

The checksum validation in the S4U2Self handler in the embedded Heimdal KDC

did not first confirm that the checksum was keyed, allowing replacement of the

requested target (client) principal

Authenticated users with write permission can trigger a symlink traversal to write

or detect files outside the Samba share.
